I'm not inclined to support giving a share of Chess Foundation revenue to the provinces. However, I am considering supporting the original motion. My only remaining concern is that the price tag for a combined CFC/Provincial Life Membership might deter some people from becoming life members. On the other hand, from a BC perspective there would be no provincial life membership fee payable since we no longer sell life memberships.
Would BC honour an Ontario Life Membership by waiving the $4 BCCF event fee for players moving here from Ontario - probably not.

Well then I obviously should have taken out my life membership just before rather than just after I moved from ON to BC!!
BCCF dues at the time were 60% of the CFC level so I paid 60% of the CFC life membership fee to the BCCF.
Two points: (1) this should have been enforced by the CFC 20+ years ago, (2) with the NFP discussion this is a lousy time to be working out the details on this.
