Council Election Voting Period
This is the first time the AIBC will be conducting a council election by electronic vote (or e-vote) since bylaws were passed by members in 2014 authorizing electronic voting for council elections and bylaw amendments.
The e-vote will be conducted according to the Architects Act, AIBC Bylaws and Council Rules 4: Electronic Voting and Council Elections.
The e-voting period will open April 13 at 9 a.m. and close May 8 at 12 p.m.
(NEW!) E-voting for the council election will close at 12 p.m. on the day of the annual meeting, several hours before the start of the annual meeting. This year’s council election will be conducted electronically and paper ballots will NOT be mailed out.
