Joe shut for a change and listen to those that actually know something!
That would definitely NOT be you…
Why are you posting here?
Mssr. Farsetta
As a relatively new inspectar livng in Montreal I have come to the conclosun that NACHI is not for me cause of the continual language used by you and Mssr. Bushart.
CAHPI seem to be the association that is more professional.
Merci montrant derrière le monde ce que n’est pas Nachi.
Then I guess this will be your last post, right?
Bye. Take the Wand sisters (Ray and Roy) with you.
Come back, when you can’t stay so long!

The naked truth is here for all to see.
Mr. Laponte El iney squathee scoutee Ka ah nah amiaqua sqaw yonah wiskelutha sqawthee scoutee eliney. or in English for French who refuse to see both sides. Oh man of little fire,who befriends girlie men, and whose opinions bear no weight, fly away little man of little fire. The End
Guy,
If you believe that the entirety of this association is this message board, then perhaps you are correct.
if you are blind to the fact that InterNACHI has more benefits than all others combined, then the “other guys” probably deserve you.
Wherever you go, my advice to you is to grow a thicker skin.
Absent of a moderated setting, message boards would generally be a free-for-all
I cannot speak french, but can still say adios.
Now, let’s see… He joins on the 26th of this month… this was his third post… he criticizes us… he quits (though he never joined), he speaks about other associations by name… Hmmmmm
Ray, is that you?
I cannot speak french, but can still say adios. No wonder Mexicans look at me funny when I tell them, “Adios” they can’t speak French! 
Nope its not me, and no I am not Canadian Inspector nor am I Enough S. Enough. But when I look who is on line looking it seems there are more and more non members viewing the board. As to Guy mentioning the association whats wrong with that he lives in Montreal, and I know through Bill Mullen that CAHPI has a strong presence in Quebec.

Folks,
Laponte does not appear to be who he said he is and most likely is not from Montreal either.
He can’t write in English nor in French.
My guess is that its Majic Laponte using cheap translation’s software or Babel Fish…
Than again there’s always other dialects of non-parisian french - out and about!
Qu’encore il y a toujours d’autres dialectes d’aucun-parisian français - dehors et au sujet de!
Just funnin you - mon amis Marcel!
Like I stated earlier, when this all started some of us had not made up our minds.
But since watching all of the hate filled and vindictive posts by Roy and
Ray …
Roy Cooke and Ray Wand have lost all credibility and support.
Roy might spend 30-minutes on a Radio show doing a lot of heavy handed SELF PROMOTION with every now and then a mention of NACHI but then he comes on this message board and spends hours, and hours, and hours wiping out what LITTLE good he did on the Radio!
ROY COOKE AND RAY WAND… YOU ARE BOTH AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE CANADIAN HOME INSPECTOR INDUSTRY!
ESOP’s decision supported by mathematical analysis.
Recently ESOP expelled 2 Canadian members. I was personally opposed to the decisions to have them removed from InterNACHI. One of the 2 is a close personal friend of mine who has helped InterNACHI and me many times for many years. I’d go as far as saying there wouldn’t be an InterNACHI presence in Canada without him. He is a good friend and I love him. But before everyone (including me) starts thinking poorly of ESOP, I wanted to state for the record that the chances of this decision having little to do with the 2 ex-members is almost zero. Clearly the two ex-members played a role in their fate.
For many years, leaders and members of other Canadian associations have sent me email after email after email (hundreds in all) complaining about these very 2 members. I ignored all of them for years, until today. Today I decided to calculate what the odds were of this being pure coincidence.
There are about 3,000 inspectors in Canada of which my inbox for years is packed with complaints from 2 other Canadian associations regarding only 2 inspectors. I won’t go into all their charges and complaints. Anyway, ESOP recently removed the very same 2 inspectors from InterNACHI. InterNACHI almost never expelles anyone,s so the results of our analysis should end up dramatic.
Let’s see what the odds of this being pure coincidence (the ex-members being innocent victims of ESOP and having played no role this situation) are. The odds of one of the 2 members ESOP expelled, also being one of the 2 very other inspectors that the other associations had trouble with, is 1 in 1,500 (there is a 1 in 1500 chance of drawing 1 of 2 inspectors from a pool of 3,000). Then, the odds of the exact other inspector being expelled by ESOP is 1 in 3,000 (there is a 1 in 2,999 chance of drawing 1 inspector from a pool 2,999).
Now here is where it gets interesting. The odds of them expelling those exact 2 members coincidentally (meaning that the ex-members themselves had NO ROLE in any of this and are purely innocent victims of ESOP) is (1 divided by 1,500) times (1 divided by 2,999) or 1 in 4,498,500. Or in other words… impossible.
I waited until after ESOPs decision today to make this post.
One of the 2 ex-members is my dear friend and always will be. I love him. But basic probability and statistics support several of ESOPs contentions. –

Raymond Wand and Roy Cooke have been and continue to be an EMBARRASSMENT and a DISGRACE to the ENTIRE Canadian Home Inspector’s Industry!
The numerous complaints over the last few years do not lie!
Nick is a smart man… We are ALL glad to see him finally come to his senses!
