B-42 BY-LAW 19 - PRESIDENT, BY-LAW 20 – VICE-PRESIDENTS & BY-LAW 21 - DIRECTORS – National Elected Leaders Involved in Constituent Bodies

Sponsor: Stéphane Aubry, National Vice-President | Disposition: Defeated

Whereas it is not common to see officers involved in the day-to-day activities, while also being involved in the strategies of organization. Involvements at both levels could be prone to tensions, conflict of interests, bias. Further, some of current and past VPs have being wearing multiple hats that further cause conflicts on the position to be taken on some decisions. Basically, sometime it feels like one day you decide what you are going to do the next days, always thinking of the how (down to earth) and not concentrating on the why (20k feet strategies);

Therefore be it resolved that By-Laws 19.2, 20.2 and 21.2 be amended and converted into regulations, effective January 2019:

BY-LAW 19 - PRESIDENT
