Equine Canada's Proposed By-laws and Articles of Continuance:

Get Informed, Get Engaged, Vote!

 

August 4, 2015

 

Special Notice to Members

 

Dear Member,

 

Equine Canada is pleased to present you with the proposed EC By-laws and Articles of Continuance.

 

The proposed By-laws and Articles of Continuance are the result of extensive consultation and collaboration with EC's key partners and stakeholder groups, including Provincial/Territorial Equestrian Sport Organizations (P/TSOs), Sport, and Industry.

 

By working together, the EC Board, EC Governance Committee, and the By-laws Taskforce (including representatives from the core groups of provinces, sport, and industry), have created proposed By-laws that not only meet the requirements of the Canada Not-for-profit Corporations Act (CNCA), but also represent a framework that all parties believe will allow EC to be repositioned as a leading equestrian and equine federation premised on the core values of respect, diversity, inclusivity, service, excellence, and volunteerism.

 

We encourage you to get informed, get engaged, and vote.

 

Click HERE to read the proposed EC By-laws and Articles of Continuance and access additional resources, including Frequently Asked Questions. You will also find full voting instructions.
