Annual Meeting of Members
Governance
In a decision dated August 28, 2024, the Deputy Director appointed under the Canada Not-for-profit Corporations Act (CNCA) authorized the CFPC to extend the time for calling each AMM for the financial years ending February 2024, February 2025, February 2026, February 2027, and February 2028, pursuant to Subsection 160(2) of the CNCA (the “Exemption”). The members will be asked to support this authorization by passing a special resolution at each of the AMMs for the duration of the Exemption.Financial statements: The CFPC’s most recent fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, and in keeping with Subsection 172 (1) of the CNCA, the statements are available within six months of year-end.
Board Director elections: The call for nominations is issued annually by February 1st. Learn more about the process.
Meeting norms: To make sure we have an efficiently run meeting that provides as much opportunity for member input as possible, the CFPC adopts a set of AMM meeting norms. Read the norms for 2026.
Member input for the AMM agenda: Member feedback is always encouraged. If you have questions or would like to get in touch with us about an idea you would like to propose, please contact us at [email protected] for an informal discussion.
Member questions during the AMM: The AMM is scheduled to take place over a set time, with a general question-and-answer period to follow. While efforts are made to allow time for general questions and answers, given the virtual format and the focus on providing adequate time for member input, we may not have time to respond to everyone. We encourage you to submit your questions in advance if possible, or following the meeting, to [email protected].
Member-proposed motions: Members entitled to vote at the meeting are welcome to submit a proposal to be considered for inclusion on the AMM agenda. Contact us at [email protected] to access the form and all relevant information to consider when drafting the motion.
Member proposals must be submitted within the period of June 13, 2026, to August 12, 2026. This window is set by the CNCA and is calculated based on the anniversary of the CFPC’s previous annual meeting. Proposals submitted outside this period cannot be accepted.
