Annual General Meeting – Saturday, Oct 20: Notice of motions to amend the Constitution

The Annual General Meeting will take place on Saturday, October 20th at the Woodhaven Community Centre at 1pm sharp.

  • Address: 200 Glendale Boulevard, Winnipeg, MB
  • Click (HERE) for Google Map

The time and location are different than previous years for a number of reasons:

  • To free up the Banquet from the business side of things;
  • To allow time for rural members to travel to Winnipeg for the AGM;
  • To combine the AGM with a “Town Hall” discussion for greater feedback and participation

All MCA members are entitled to vote, and those members who live further than 100kms from Winnipeg may assign another MCA member as a “proxy”. Attached is the form that must be used, according to the MCA Constitution, in order to appoint a proxy.
