Committee
Executive Council Triennial Elections are Just Around the Corner
January 9, 2023
To All MoveUP Members
Every three years, MoveUP holds elections for all Executive Councillor positions in all Executive Council areas across our union. All currently elected Executive Councillors’ terms will end on April 30.
The official call for nominations email bulletin will be emailed to you in March and will contain information on how to run for an Executive Council area position.
We will be doing electronic balloting for all contested Executive Council positions. This will be similar to the format we used in 2021 for the Executive Board, President, and Secretary-Treasurer elections, respectively.
For those new to the process or have forgotten what happened last time, voting is conducted through the Member Portal on the MoveUP website. We encourage all members to sign in to their Member Portal early to ensure their profile information is accurate. You can update your phone number, address, and email directly on the Member Portal.
There is a two-step verification process for registration for the Member Portal. You will require your membership number to register for the Member Portal. If you do not have your membership number, please email membership@moveuptogether.ca with the subject “Membership Card Request” and include the following information:
- First and Last Name
- Employer and Work Location
- Home or cell phone number
- Personal email address
- Mailing address (Please ensure this is your residential mailing address, not your workplace mailing address. We will not send your membership card to your workplace.)
Your membership card will include your membership number.
IMPORTANT: When you log in to the Member Portal, double-check to ensure your work location listed is accurate. If you notice your work location is incorrect, please contact our Membership Department at 604-299-0378 or 1-800-665-6838 immediately as Executive Council positions are assigned by work location(s) and you are only eligible to vote in an Executive Council election that represents your area.
In solidarity,
Claudia Cortez
Returning Officer
