Thank you Alberta, Canadian InterNACHI members!

[Nick Gromicko]

I just wanted to thank all my fellow members for supporting me at the licensing meeting last night. It's pretty clear things are now going our way.

[George A. H. Luck]

Give us an idea of what happened Nick. A short report?

[Joe Farsetta]

Fooey.

For anyone present at this meeting, my understanding was that the word "fooey" was used at least once by a government official.

Man word travels fast. Keep watching maybe someone will spill the beans. It's not going to be me.

[Vern Mitchinson, CMI]

Nick I want to thank you and Val for attending and the inspiration you bring to us and to all Hi's. You are awesome.

I am pretty sure that (fooey) came from one of the Red Deer, AB inspectors. Next year they might as well rent a bus for as many that turned out!!!!

[George A. H. Luck]

"Man word travels fast."

Everywhere but Canada it seems.

[Nick Gromicko]

I'm with Vern on this one. I'm not going to be the one to give CAHPI the bad news. They'll find out soon enough.

I think the spelling is "Phooey".

[Joe Farsetta]

A little bird told me that Fooey is a new flavor of ice cream. Nick, is this true?

[George A. H. Luck]

Nick
It appears that Roy and I have heard the news from two separate sources. Care to confirm?

[Lawrence Olsen]

Carey
If you are taking about me this is all I wrote in another thread. And I am entitled to talk that much because they have some of my money.

One word for CHAPI "Fooey"

And maybe next time we should have the meeting here in Red Deer that way we won't have to get a bus.

Lawrence,
The next meeting in Red Deer sounds great to me !!! Oh and nobody was talking about you. Hope you have a very busy Spring!!

While I don't wish to see CAHPI fail its apparent that OAHI has a differnt view. There is a petition circulating to withold monies to CAHPI from members of OAHI.

If that should happen it leaves many unanswered questions about those in Ontario who have already paid and rec'd their National Certification. I can see the industry in Ontario being splintered even further with CAHPI and Nachi picking up the pieces.

[Joe Farsetta]

Word I heard is that CAPHI is in charge of, and will have influence over, ...nothing.

who have already paid and rec'd their National Certification.

I also heard that the National Certification wont count for anything. While it may be a certification mark for some, it wont hold any special value from a licensing or legal standpoint.

Not being from Canada, and not being in attendance at this meeting, I cant state this as fact. Only someone in attendance can attest for the words of officials that spoke.

I have no dog in this hunt, so it doesnt affect me....

But can anyone elaborate?
