ONLINE MEETING INSTRUCTIONS:

We strongly suggest that you log in via computer as opposed to calling in. You can choose to activate your camera or not. If you do log in, please make sure that you enter your name, so that we can see who is in attendance.

Please note that given the large number of meeting attendees, all participants will be automatically muted upon joining the meeting.

The executive will start presenting promptly at 7:05pm.

After all presentations are completed, the membership can ask questions and/or make statements for 2 minutes at a time.

In order to get in the queue to speak, please raise your hand in the Google Meets application.

The moderator will unmute members, in order, for their 2-minute timeframe. Once two minutes are up, the member will be placed back on mute while the question is being addressed.

VOTING FOR MOTIONS:

The motions will be put to the membership via onscreen poll that will allow you to vote via, yes, no or abstain buttons.

If you are calling in by phone, we encourage you to submit a PDF or online proxy form in advance.

We will go over these instructions again at the start of the meeting.

Please be patient and courteous and we will do our best to make sure that everyone who has something to contribute is heard.
