Re: Election of NLTA President and Vice-President
The NLTA Electoral Committee is pleased to open the nomination process for the offices of President and Vice-President. Every member in good standing will have the opportunity to vote electronically over a one week period for their candidate for President and Vice-President and to provide a ranked selection of alternate candidates should a run-off election be required.
The election of the NLTA President will occur from November 21-25, 2022 and the election of the NLTA Vice-President will occur from December 12-16, 2022. Unsuccessful candidates for the office of President may participate in the Vice-Presidential election if they have been provisionally nominated for that office. The deadlines for nominations to be received at the NLTA office are: October 27 for Presidential nominations; and November 16 for the Vice-Presidential nominations and provisional nominations.
To assist potential candidates in more isolated communities, the Electoral Committee has also approved an online nomination form. In order to be compliant with NLTA By-laws and policy, the online nomination forms must be customized to each candidate. Candidates requiring an online nomination form should request one by contacting Stefanie Tuff, NLTA Executive Director.
Members with questions regarding the NLTA nomination process are encouraged to contact the Executive Director at stuff@nlta.nl.ca.
Thank you for your attention to these items.
Paula Smith
Chair of the Electoral Committee
