Put your vote towards your vision.
The Board of Directors' Election is held every year to fill open Director positions. Your participation in the election process is key to maintaining our success as a credit union. It holds us accountable to the values we’ve founded ourselves on, and by voting, you’re helping Vancity serve its members, communities, and beyond.
Here’s how you can get involved in the election process:
Join the Nominations & Election Committee
Help oversee the elections process by interviewing applicants and identifying recommended candidates for our membership. The Nominations and Election Committee is appointed in September.
Nominate a candidate
Members are invited to nominate candidates for the Board every year between November and December during the Call for Nominations period.
Vote for candidates
Candidates for the Board of Directors are announced in February. When voting begins in April, you can cast your ballot online or via mobile app. If you have a paper ballot, you can deliver this by mail, or drop this into any Vancity branch.
Let's go paperless.
We’re trying to reduce our carbon footprint where we can, from our net-zero commitment, to reducing the amount of paper we send out — especially at election time.
To help us make an even bigger difference for the planet, vote online using the Vancity app.
Elections results
The Board of Directors' Election results are announced at the Annual General Meeting in May.
When you take part in our credit union's democratic process, you’re joining the movement to become a financial force for change.
