Board Member Election Opens September 15

Board Member Election Opens September 15

Voting in the CAMRT Board Elections is a way for every member to get involved, influence leadership and guide decisions.

Voting opens on September 15, 2015 and will remain open until October 18, 2015. Next week, all voting members of CAMRT members, as of September 7, 2015, will receive an email with their personal access code for the online election platform hosted by SimplyVoting.

During this election period candidates from the provinces of Ontario and Prince Edward Island are seeking election. Information is also included on the ballot for the candidate for the position of director from Newfoundland and Labrador, who is unopposed and therefore acclaimed.

Because the Canada Not-for-Profit Corporations Act was recently amended to ensure that organization members play an active role in selecting and approving the leadership of associations, the CAMRT has changed its election model accordingly. Previously, provincial directors on the board were elected or appointed by their provincial organization. Now, all voting members of the CAMRT are entitled to vote for all directors on the ballot, regardless of their province of residence.
