So is a CAPHI/NACHI merger out of the question?

[Nick Gromicko]

Just thought I'd ask.

[Darrell B. Hadler]

Boy Nick, you sure like to hang it out there, don't you. You mean we'd allow them to convert over to NACHI or what kind of wild idea is swimming around in that head of yours?

Same outfit as CAHPI, but the other guys inspect the Property first, then the Home...thus CAPHI.

Nick, I think you should send an ambulance team to Roys and Rays homes...I think you just triggered a series of heart attacks

This could be the salvation of the Canadian Home Inspection Industry.
Great idea it would be wonderful for the many Home Inspectors to see what a great open association NACHI is .
No secrets no intimidation from the leaders .
A place where all can voice their thoughts with out repercussion.

NICK you did it again another fantastic idea.

I think the system could be improved if people were not allowed to hide like cowards behind anonymity.

Nick I think this poll speaks to your question.

Pulse normal. Blood pressure normal.

Actually, I can't take credit for the idea. It was Bill Mullen's and we've been working on a plan to propose to the industry for quite some time.

With CAPHI, NACHI, National Certification, CMI, and the Provinces all thinking about doing something different... maybe it is time to attempt some industry unification.

If that happens we will just have to start a new assoc. Maybe call it the
National Association of Canadian Home Inspecors. NACHI

Hi Nick, et al.

I think CMI should be submitted to CAHPI for review for compatability et ceteras. Then you can compare oranges to oranges. I agree there is much duplication of services in more than one area.

I don't think anyone would have any problems with National Certification provided that non members are charged fairly and the process is open and transparent.

There still remain concerns about dual membership and who is beholding to whom.

Happy New Year!

Nick, I think this is one HECK of good idea. I am not sure what the CAPHI guys think of being taken over by NACHI but one thing they can count on is that we would accept them as equals.

Git-er-done!

[George A. H. Luck]

By the way, Nick, do you suppose it would be a good idea to include some ACTUAL CANADIAN MEMBERS OF NACHI in any negotiations that might affect both our professional futures and the future of this organization in Canada?

Just a thought.
