The Sub-Group’s finances are in good shape. Some issues with the account card linked to BMO have been identified. It was decided that the Treasurer, Michael, would schedule a meeting with an advisor from the financial institution to determine the cause.
Since Michael had not received any follow-up from the bank, it was agreed that he would follow up with BMO.
It was agreed that it would be best to hold the AGM in mid-September 2026. A venue will be rented, and a caterer will be hired to provide the food. The venue has yet to be determined; requests for proposals for the venue and the caterer will be issued over the next few months.
Depending on the number of members registered, it will likely be possible to hold an election for the position of Secretary. The position of Treasurer, meanwhile, will be up for election at the next AGM.
Michael will check how many door prizes are available in his office. In addition, he will review the list of gifts available on the PIPSC website. After consulting with the other members of the executive, it was agreed that $150 would be allocated for the purchase of gifts.
The president provided the members with a summary of the virtual meeting of the Quebec Regional Organizing Committee (ROC) held on January 15, 2026.
The president also outlined the main points of the virtual meeting about the negotiation updates, which was presented to the Sub-Group Presidents on April 1, 2026.
The president noted that he might ask other members of the executive committee to stand in for him at these meetings if he is unable to attend.
The president moved that, on an exceptional basis, a maximum monetary contribution of $100 be granted for an event recognizing a member’s years of service (in lieu of a retirement gift), upon presentation of an invoice.
The president abstained from voting. The motion was unanimously approved by the rest of the executive committee.
Positions up for election (AGM): Vice President (2 years), Secretary (new position, 1 year).
Moved by Pierre-Luc Beaudry and seconded by Michael Tremblay.
