Each year we have an AGM so members can receive a report on our activities, review our financial statements, elect board members, and appoint our auditors. Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting in-person or by conference call.

You can download the agenda for this year's AGM, and all supporting documents below.

Please remember, if you are unable to make it to Ottawa for the meeting, in order to participate you must email a proxy to our National Office, or send by postal mail to Sierra Club Canada Foundation PO Box 2007 STN B Ottawa, ON K1P 5W3. But you can still "be there" and still have a voice at the table. This is especially important to ensure we can hold valid elections to the board for our regional representatives and for our youth representative. We need at least 5 proxies from each of BC, Prairie region, Ontario, Quebec, Atlantic regions, and from our youth members.  Please fill in this proxy and email it back to us at scc-admin@sierraclub.ca)

Alternatively, anyone attending the meeting may also bring your proxy with him/her to vote on your behalf.

Further details about the AGM are available below.
