3. DELEGATES a. Branches: To determine your branch

representation: • every branch is entitled to send one accredited delegate for every 100 voting members or fraction thereof, which includes ordinary, life, associate and affiliate-voting members (Subsection 903.a). • branch representation is based on the number of paid-up voting members at the end of the preceding calendar year (Subsection 903.b). However, every delegate to a Dominion Convention must be paid up to the end of the current year (Section 905). Delegates, therefore, must be members in good standing and paid up to 31 December 2014. • branches formed on or after 1 January 2014 are entitled to send one delegate to the convention; the delegate must have their dues paid up to 31 December 2014 (Subsection 903.c).

4 CONVENTION CALL // 45TH DOMINION CONVENTION

It is vital to the successful organization of the convention that branches pay particular attention to the above constitutional requirements. b. Dominion Executive Council: Voting

members of the Dominion Executive Council who are not accredited branch delegates shall be accredited delegates to the convention (Subsection 907.a), however, they may only carry proxies if they are an accredited branch delegate as defined in Section 911 of The General By-Laws. c. Past Dominion Presidents: All Past Dominion Presidents who are not accredited branch delegates shall be accredited delegates to Convention (Subsection 907.b), however, they may only carry proxies if they are an accredited branch delegate as defined in Section 911 of The General By-Laws.

4. DELEGATE ACCREDITATION: CREDENTIAL CERTIFICATE

To become an accredited delegate, branches are to complete the enclosed Credential Certificate and forward to your Provincial Command office. Additional copies may be obtained from your command office. It is important that the Credential Certificate be completed properly. The Convention Credentials Committee must ensure that individuals registering as delegates are properly accredited; if incorrect or incomplete information is received, the member’s accreditation could be jeopardized. Provincial Commands will provide delegate lists to the Convention Credentials Committee prior to the opening of registration. Important: It is extremely important that only delegates accredited by their branch be permitted to take an active part in deciding matters of policy at a Dominion Convention. The Convention Credentials Committee does not wish to turn away any properly accredited delegate; neither does the committee wish to permit unauthorized persons to vote on matters of Legion policy.

5. VOTING AND PROXIES Only accredited delegates may vote at convention (Section 914). Each delegate will have one vote; when an election ballot vote is required, however, proxies may be used. • any delegate, accredited by the branch of which he is a member, may carry, in addition to his own credentials, up to four proxy credentials. These proxies may be from any branch or branches within his own Provincial Command (Section 911). • proxies must be registered at the opening of the convention and may only be used when an election ballot vote is required (Section 912). • Every proxy, to be valid, shall include a credential certificate naming the delegate entitled to register such proxy (Section 913). A branch that wishes to be represented by proxy must complete a Credential Certificate in order that the delegate designated as the holder of the proxy can make use of the vote(s) at their disposal. Strict attention to this requirement will prevent delay and possible disappointment when credentials are being examined by the Convention Credentials Committee. Important: In order for a delegate to carry proxies, the person must be an accredited delegate of their own branch.

6.

REGISTRATION PROCESS

Delegates and observers will register at the Shaw Conference Centre. Upon payment of the registration fee, delegates and observers will be provided with a delegate kit and meeting book; they will then be directed to their respective Provincial Command desk where they will be issued a nametag and ballot book(s) as applicable.

7.

REGISTRATION FEES

The fees, payable in cash only at the time of registration in Edmonton, are: • Delegate: $50 • Observer: $15

8.

RESOLUTIONS

Resolutions to be dealt with at convention: • shall be submitted from a branch through the respective Provincial Command (Subsection 919.a). • may be submitted by a branch or branches, command or standing committee of Dominion Command (Subsection 919.b). • must be received at Dominion Command at least 112 days prior to the opening of the convention (Subsection 919.c). Deadline for receipt of resolutions at Dominion Command: 23 February 2014. Late resolutions: Resolutions received after 23 February 2014 will be considered as Late Resolutions. Late resolutions will be referred to the Dominion Executive Council meeting prior to the Dominion Convention. Only those resolutions considered urgent will be presented to the convention for consideration; resolutions deemed not to be urgent will be returned to the respective Provincial Command following the Dominion Convention. Important: Branches are to ensure that all resolutions are submitted prior to the deadline established by their respective Provincial Command. Allowance must be made for the length of time mail takes in transit.

9. TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS AND HOTEL ACCOMMODATION

Dominion Command is working with Carlson Wagonlit Travel (CWT), one of the Legion’s Member Benefit Partners, to help make travel and hotel arrangements for all Legion delegates attending convention. Delegates can opt to make their own arrangements, however, those booking through CWT can anticipate savings compared with making individual arrangements themselves. Delegates can call toll free 1-800-231-2595 to speak with a CWT travel counsellor or visit http://bookings.cwtgroups.ca/ legionconvention2014/ for on-line arrangements.

6 CONVENTION CALL // 45TH DOMINION CONVENTION

This requirement also applies to those persons traveling by motor home.

TRAVEL A RRA N GE M E N TS We have been working with Carlson Wagonlit Travel (CWT) to help make travel arrangements for all Legion delegates attending the convention simple and easy. CWT will assist you with booking your flights, arranging transfers from the airport in Edmonton to your downtown hotel (approx 30 minutes away), provide you with the hotel options that suit you the best (at special Legion rates), and book any post convention tours or travel that you would like to have around Edmonton, within Alberta or anywhere else in Western Canada. All this by going onto one link: http://bookings.cwtgroups. ca/legionconvention2014/ or calling one phone number: 1 800 231-2595

BENEFITS OF BOOKING YOUR TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS WITH CWT Cost savings on flights: CWT will be reserving group blocks of flights from major cities such as Toronto, Halifax, St John’s, Montreal, and Winnipeg. They will also be working with both Air Canada and Westjet to offer a special Legion convention discount on flights that are not part of the group blocks. These rates will only be available by completing the reservation form or by calling CWT on the dedicated toll free number and not by booking with the airline directly. Cost savings on taxis and transfers: CWT will help coordinate transfers from the Edmonton airport to your downtown hotel, in conjunction with as many flights as possible. Get all the hotel options available at special Legion prices: the Legion and CWT have negotiated blocks of rooms at 10 downtown Edmonton hotels. CWT will provide you information on location, inclusions such as free breakfast and wifi, parking rates and distance from the Shaw Comference Centre. Post convention vacation and tours: looking at seeing a little more of Alberta or BC? CWT has put together a special motor coach tour and packages for Legion members, plus they can help coordinate any individual travel plans or self drive holidays throughout Alberta, the Rockies and BC.

14 CONVENTION CALL // 45TH DOMINION CONVENTION

Service fees: CWT will charge $35 per person for all air, transfers and hotel accommodation bookings, and $15 per booking for anyone driving and who books their hotel only with CWT. The amount you save by booking your travel with CWT will outweigh the small cost for them do make all your reservations for you. CWT recommends that all delegates use the booking form on the following website to ensure accuracy for all reservations. Once you complete this information, a CWT counsellor will call you to confirm your preferred travel arrangements, provide you insurance information and obtain your credit card number for payment.
