Hello,
I am not on facebook and, generally speaking, not a social media person (too busy for that). I just would like to add that one does not apply for a visitor visa to compete in a tournament...
Yes! I am in contact with Lance Grigg and have had some contacts with Alberta Chief provincial courts. Amazing judge! Would love input from every province.
I support Lyle Craver nomination who has remained a key member of the CFC executive despite recent challenging years. It is hoped that the CFC will continue to benefit from his long time involvement...
4H member at large
As members at large do, I have participated in all meetings of the executive.
I suggested and had applied ZOOM meetings of the executive with an agenda and hope this efficient...
I support the nomination of Vladimir Drkulec. I am quite new to this board but having chaired boards
of various organisations I must say that his leadership is professional and efficient. He knows...
The only requirement an organization can impose is proof of negative result’s testing done within 72 hours of a game. This is what the Canadian government requires travellers.
Chess is not a charity but a Chess association might be granted a Charity status based on criteria such as its exclusive promotion of amateur chess in Canada nation-wide, its overseeing of structure...
What you are saying is not contradicting what I wrote. You are giving examples and they are valid. It remains that any number of board members would only make a difference if people are not doing...
If you forward me the file, I’ll look into it. I am in the midst of preparing an application for an org. I believe the CFC might fit in a different «*box*» but I need to see the documents.
For having served and for still serving on a number of boards and committees (some I chair), I can confirm that the numbers and positions are irrelevant as long as the job is done. If we continue to...
It is important that this status is reinstated as it allows not only for more donations but also access to various organizations government’s funded programs.
I have been in contact with Prof. Lance Grigg from Lethbridge university, in Alberta, who has been running a small but successful grogram called “Chess for life”. The program is geared at young...
As many if you know, I have been involved in the CFC executive for a few months.
Throughout these months, I made myself available every time there was a need for an extra help.
This included...
I also accept the nomination. Thank you.
My report to follow.
If needs be, having witnessed the work done by Vladimir Drkulec, I second it.
Yes. When do we start?
On your second point, if I may: Zoom has features that allow questions and answers and chat to share links (for example google docs links to consult documents on the side column of the screen.
We...
I understand that people are reluctant to change especially when technology is concerned. But the more we do these meetings the better we get at them. In ZOOM or other similar programs there are...
I agree. We should be able to review this point in the bylaws review.
Sir:
I maintain every word of my earlier post. The said discriminatory and offensive comment was clear.
A tentative interpretation, made months later, could be viewed as an effort for a doubtful...
I would work toward reaching a satisfactory mutual participation including discussing adding French where and when necessary.
The only violation I witnessed during the said voting process was much more serious than a bylaw or a law: It was a Canadian Charter violation. It was stated that a woman (me) who is proposed for...
Thank you for redirecting this forum to its real goals. There is so many important items to deal with. I welcome the positive advancement of Chess through these consultations.
I am not here to teach anyone Canadian law. I answered you. You will have to do your own research.
I was one of the organizers of an 80 people zoom last month - JUST SAYING ...
