President's Message April 2021

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

    j_hansen_2019_ep_0315_rev_crop.pngHi Fellow Members:
 
As I sit here in my office I am contemplating the upcoming AGM on April 24, which for the first time ever will be held online using Zoom. It is coming soon; keep an eye out for emails from us on the particulars and proxy forms! How the world has changed over the past year!


As a profession in Ontario, home inspectors are still waiting to hear from the provincial government about licensing: this may never come to be. We are just not a large enough of a group for them to care about in the end. This is just my opinion in any case. It is however frustrating for some of us since we have held off making pertinent business decisions since licensing can greatly affect how we do business. But keep your head up: it has to either happen or the Bill will die. It also does not help the consumer which the Bill was supposed to be all about.

It is not in my plans to continue on as president of OAHI for another term. I am sure the next president will do a great job for us all. I am equally sure you will all be as inviting to the next president as you were to me. I thank you all for the kind words over years and wish you the best moving forward. I will be staying on as past president on the board of directors and you can still reach out to me as you like.

OAHI still needs volunteers to help out with lots of things so if you can spare a bit of time each month, there are many benefits in doing so and I strongly encourage everyone to at least consider volunteering.

There is always something that you can do to help out your fellow members as well as the profession as a whole in Ontario.

I look forward to seeing you at the AGM on Zoom.
As always, I give you my very best and Godspeed.
