Nominations and Elections

United Ostomy Association of Canada Inc.
CALL FOR NOMINATIONS 2012 to 2015

Elections for Officers and Directors of the UOAC will be held during the National Council Meeting (AGM) to be held in Toronto in August 2012.  Positions open are:

President
Vice President
Secretary
Treasurer
Two (2) Director positions

In accordance with a motion passed at the AGM in Saskatoon in August 2011 the upcoming (2012) Election will vary from our established procedure in that the Election for President and Vice President will be for a three (3) year term 2012 to 2015.

The Secretary and Treasurer will be elected for a two (2) year term 2012 to 2014.

This will stagger the term of Office of those Elected so that we will not have a total Executive change at future election.

Director positions will be for a normal two (2) year period 2012 to 2014.
