All the threads in section 4 are for nomination of Executive Members and Officers of the Chess Federation of Canada. The qualification to hold any office is the same as to be a CFC Voting Member, e.g. of legal age, a current CFC member and a current Canadian resident.

In addition section 14 of the Handbook says:

14. INELIGIBILITY AS A DIRECTOR

No person may be elected or appointed as a member of the Board of Directors if he is involved in the ownership or operation of a chess related business or earns a substantial part of his income from a chess related business. Any Director becoming involved in such chess related business during the term of his office shall resign as a Director. A professional chess player, chess teacher, chess coach, tournament director, or a player who writes chess books, a chess column, articles for a newspaper(s) or magazine(s) shall not be excluded from being a Director by this clause.

Nominations close at 6pm ET August 11th (Day 3). Following the close of nominations elections begin and continue through 6pm ET August 14 (Day 6)
