Changes to the Institute By-Laws

By-Law 13.1.4.1 states: No By-Law shall be enacted, repealed, or amended by a General Meeting unless details of proposed changes were submitted to the Office of the General Counsel no later than twelve (12) weeks prior to a General Meeting.

Travel, Meetings & Events considerations

We are making every effort to deliver a high-quality member experience with cost containment measures in place. The Annual General Meeting exemplifies “presence with purpose”. As the supreme governing body of PIPSC, the AGM not only provides members with the ability to conduct important union business, but also to connect and learn together. We look forward to the opportunities this hybrid event provides.

For travel to/from airports or train stations, we will be providing delegates with an Uber promo code that can be used to cover the cost of your transportation. If you are uncomfortable using Uber, you can still be reimbursed for taxi transportation.

You will be able to access all AGM information and resources through both the AGM mobile app and the PIPSC website using your own device. 

Delegates of the PIPSC AGM 2026 can refer to the Policy on Financial Support for Member Participation. Please consult the AGM 2026 Financial Claims Document for details on what can and cannot be claimed for local and non-local delegates.
