Don't worry about the cost, Roy. I am sure that if you asked those same taxpayers if they thought that HI's need regulations, they would respond over 95%.....YES!!!!

The cost to taxpayers is very small. The qualified organizations are responsible for testing, verifying experience and training and discipline of their members or Registrants. The CPBC does almost nothing other than issue the license based on the recommendation from the qualified organization.

Rather than creating a huge beaurocracy over this, the people in BC very cleverly placed the workload on the backs of the qualifed organizations. Good for them. It saves a lot of duplication and streamlines the process.

.
It all depends how it is worded You are great about complaining about what the government spends when you disagree but see nothing wrong with things that are not your business ,You complain when I answer a question but do not hesitate to jump in when I and another are having a conversation .
You are just a jealous little person who has a big chip on his shoulder you are always right even when wrong .
You are a disgrace to our Canadian home Inspectors .
I am sure if we asked the taxpayers if they want a tax reduction 100% would say yes.

I rarely disagree with government spending unless it's not transparent or something like the G20 fiasco.......and Little Stevie trying to impress the world's bigwigs with our "fake lake" and holding the larger part of the meetings in Tarana when even the mayor saw the problems coming and did not want it......

I don't mind taxes when it helps keep us in the top 5-6 of countries in the world........ It's those folks who are in good economic times whining about them.......If you don't like our taxes, go to the Congo or similar......just remember to bring armed guards with you!!

BTW, we have fallen from #1 that we held for many years in a row!

How would you word it without bias then?

I simply use "Do you feel home inspectors should be licensed?"....to which
the response is "Yes".....oh... about 100% of the time? After which I tell them.... "Only in BC are HI's regulated"........SHOCK on their faces!!! or "You have to be kidding!!"

What do you think about that Brian?

Raymond:

Whether or not we agree that the BC licensing is meaningful, the fact remains that in BC a person must have a license to inspect houses. The urgent problem is that a significant number were given provisional licenses so they could continue to practice, but those provisional licenses will expire on March 31, 2011, which will effectively throw between 50 and 100 people out of work.

Until now, their only options were to join either CAHPI BC, ASTT or CanNACHI. Many of these people are iNACHI members who have been left out in the cold by CAHPI and ASTT and perhaps don't want to join CanNACHI for whatever reason. iNACHI members don't automatically qualify under CanNACHI because to qualify for licencing, CanNACHI modfied there requirements so they are very different from those of iNACHI.

The NHICC provides another independent oprion for those affected. Our goal is to find a way to help them stay employed. They don't have to apply to the NHICC, but if they don't their only hope might be to accept the dictates of CAHPI or ASTT.

Nobody is claiming the NCP through NHICC is the answer to everything, but it is a very attractive, credible and achievable option for many. The statements that the NHICC does not recognize experience are very wrong. The NHICC has a really fair method of evaluating people with related experience. Some inspectors have achieved their NCH without any formal classroom training, just based on their in-the-field training and experience. Some of these had no problem passing the TIPR and away they went.

Your biggest problem is that you can never win an argument using the truth, because you have none, but you must always resort to innuendo, suppositions and lies.

Bill talking this way does no good and you as a leader of our industry sure need to cool of a lot .
It is so sad to see some one of your experience and caliber being this way.
