Nominate Yourself: Committee By-Elections!

Calling all CUPE 3903 members! 

Please consider running for open committee positions in the upcoming by-elections taking place at the August 21st General Membership Meeting

We are currently taking nominations for the following committees: 

  • Accessibility Committee 
  • CUPE Toronto District Council 
  • Distribution Committee  
  • Finance Committee   
  • Joint Health and Safety Committee 

These positions had previously been filled on a pro tem (temporary) basis over the summer. If you are currently sitting on one of these committees on a pro tem basis, you do need to nominate yourself to be officially elected to the committee! 

Members in good standing may nominate themselves using the form linked here

Information regarding each committee can be found on the committees page of our website. Per the Bylaws, members may serve on a maximum of four (4) committees per year

Any committee positions with more nominees than open positions open will be voted on at the August 2025 General Membership Meeting (GMM). Otherwise, nominees will be acclaimed to their positions.  

Candidates are invited to include a statement in support of their nomination(s). Statements received by Tuesday 19 August at 5:00 PM, Toronto Time (EDT, UTC-4) will be included in the GMM package. Nominations can still be submitted after this deadline but will likely not be included in the GMM package.  

Members can also nominate themselves during the GMM, and candidates for any contested positions will be given a chance to make a two-minute statement supporting their candidacy. 

Voting will take place at the August GMM and end when the meeting ends. 

If you have any questions about committee by-elections, please contact Stephen Carr, Vice-President Unit 1, at vpu1@cupe3903.org.
