2024 List of candidates, Biographical Sketches and Offenders

The Elections Committee strives to ensure that biographical sketches meet the obligations under By-Law 24.1.1 (d) and under the Election Campaign Administrative Procedures. With that in mind, the Elections Committee did make some decisions to remove small sentences or phrases from biographical sketches and advised the respective candidates of each decision. In some other cases, the Elections Committee made requests to candidates to reword portions of their biographical sketch.

Comments made by candidates in their biographical sketch are opinion and occasionally the opinion may not necessarily represent the facts. It is not practical nor possible for the Elections Committee to fully scrutinize all candidate biographical sketches for accuracy.

All the positions are for 3-year terms beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2027.
