For the proposal to get on the notice:

"(a) state the nature of that business in sufficient detail to permit a member to form a reasoned judgment on the business;"



The persons submitting the motion could discuss during the meeting but that would be far from statements.

Only the director who is under the question of removal may submit the statement opposing the removal.

Statement of director

131 (1) Subject to the by-laws, a director is entitled to submit to the corporation a written statement giving reasons for resigning or for opposing the removal or replacement of the director if a meeting is called for that purpose.

Circulating statement

(2) A corporation shall immediately give notice to the members of the statement in the manner referred to in section 162.

Statement to Director

(3) A corporation shall immediately send a copy of the statement to the Director.


(FYI: Director here is a special Government one.)

They have to make a clear statement of the charges. Violations of Roberts Rules of Order do not necessarily make the cut.
