VOTING AT THE AGM

During the AGM, voting members will receive an email after attendance at the AGM has been confirmed and members have been deemed “present” for quorum purposes. This will be sent shortly after quorum has been established and attendance email list confirmed for voting purposes. The email will allow you to vote during the meeting and will come from the bridge via Election Runner. If you do not see it in your inbox, please check your junk or spam mailbox. Please note: you will need to be able to access your email during the AGM. 

The email will include a Voter ID and Voter Key with a link that will automatically log you in specifically to Election Runner to submit your vote. You will only be able to vote once. Your Voter ID will allow us to see if your vote has been submitted, but your vote/ballot will be anonymous. Please note: voting will not open until the AGM starts. Voting for the November 17, 2023 Members’ Meeting minutes, Board election, resolution for church By-law review, and financial report will all be on one ballot.

If you have been designated as a proxy holder by a member who is not able to attend, you will receive a separate email addressed in their name. Please make sure you have discussed with the member how they would like you to vote on their behalf. To vote for yourself, click the link in the email addressed to you. To vote for the member who has designated you as their proxy holder, click the email with their name on it.

As preparation for the AGM, we encourage you to review the documents and presentations on this website.
