I'm wondering why this isn't posted on the front page of the CFC website ?
I'd like to bring up the issue of National Candidate Master and other Certificates. One of our players has been waiting for since mid-May, 2022 for their Certificate and I'm told it will be issued...
I also agree, however the disclaimer should be in the forefront where it can be seen at the beginning instead of at the bottom of the page. Perhaps someone could suggest that.
Organizers should also be cognizant that some players may not feel comfortable in attending until all restrictions are lifted and even then, especially the older participants, may not feel...
It would be nice to have a one page writeup about the founders, where the first "head office" was located, how many chess players there were in Canada at the time, how the National organization...
We started phase 1 of 3 today. Each phase is slated to last a month. At the start of phase 3 (in two months from today), practically all the restrictions are slated to be lifted. Of course, we all...
I suppose it may be possible to have the first 80% of the meeting on the forum website and the last part on Zoom, that would provide an opportunity to consider various options., Or, you could have...
Actually, I prefer Vlad's idea that we have our meetings via Zoom. Civility and Roberts Rules of Order would be easy to enforce.
Two things:
1. My comment was not a slight at Lyle or anyone else for that matter. It was an observation which will hopefully result in a better format for announcing votes, times and dates of...
I posted this on another post as the threads that I was looking at were closed. I was in and out all day and was waiting to vote until tomorrow. I understood that we had until tomorrow to vote ? ...
I guess the only place I can put this is here because the other threads are closed. I waited to vote until tomorrow (as stated, the vote was supposed to conclude tomorrow, February 26th. I didn't...
All I'm saying is that the Motion on the Point of Interest should be clear and unambiguous for those who plan to vote on the issue and should be placed at the "Vote" location, not in the parameters...
Sorry Fred, this is made far too complicated for no reason. I agree with Chris and Egidijus, the "Motion" should be clearly provided in written form. This is a motion for Appeal and should be dealt...
Lyle replied to my e-mail asking how many "Directors" and "VM's" we have in the CFC. He said around 65 ! It may well be that I'll withdraw my opposition to the expansion of the Executive as I...
I note that wrote the following before reading Christopher Mallon's last posting. I have to admit that when I first became involved with the CFC 6 or 7 years ago, that I was optimistic that this...
I should note that the underlined references to "Director(s)" in the NFP Act or the CFC Bylaws, at least the way I read it, merely means that in order to fill that position, you "must" be a Director...
I don't agree with limiting the numbers of Directors to a specific category of people on the Board. In my view, if we're going to amend the Bylaws , they should reflect that everyone who has a right...
I have read this complete thread (at least twice and some places several times - and again, in my view, Vadim does not have a "conflict of interest" if elected). I have also read Aris's resignation...
Section 125 of the NFP Act states: "125 A corporation shall have one or more directors, but a soliciting corporation shall not have fewer than three directors, at least two of whom are not officers...
Hi Patricia, I have read all the posts in this forum and don't see your other two posts which I would like to read. Can you please either repost them or point to where they can be found ?

The issue of "Conflict of Interest" is an important one for people who may want to be involved in the future with chess at different levels, especially internationally. I have not dealt with...

1. As noted by Sasha and others, this should be a forum for intelligent, well-mannered, sober deliberations regarding chess and chess-related issues. There is "no" reason for intelligent people to...
