Vancouver Branch President Report |
|
|
i. |
TM reviewed the activities of the Branch over the past two years, including: the Branch’s participation in Regional Council in May and our recent tent at the BC Fed Labour Day at Trout Lake Park in Vancouver. The COVID pandemic significantly limited member engagement opportunities. Ted also discussed ideas and planning for 2023 and encourage all members to reach out to the Executive if they have ideas or would like to get involved.
TM thanked everyone for their contribution as Vancouver Branch Executives and encourage members to consider putting their names forward at the next AGM!
