HMC Board Elections
Nominee Slates for Election PositionsElections are held on-line before the AGM (fall) in years that positions need to be filled. The dates of the election and AGM will be posted well ahead of time. An HMC Board committee, convened by the Past-Chair will encourage nominations and volunteers, coordinate and then manage the slate of candidates. Members can view the nomination slate and related candidate bios and statements in the membership section of the website at least 21 days before the election. To become a member to participate as a candidate, nominate a candidate, and/or to vote in future elections, visit our Membership page. MORE ABOUT HMC ELECTIONSBoard member terms will generally be 3 years in length, excepting where a shorter term is necessitated by any early vacancies. To ensure a consistent rotation of experienced board members and fresh voices, an election rotation has been established where the Secretary, Treasurer and half the Directors-at-Large will be elected in the first year and the Chair-Elect, Chair, Membership Secretary, and the remaining Directors-at-large will be elected in the second year. The third year will see no elections other than those required to fill unforeseen vacancies that the board feels must be filled before the next planned election. Elections are typically held electronically via our website, where every member in good standing is eligible to cast their vote.
