Membership
A Membership Application must be completed annually. Members will maintain their membership by an annual payment set by the ICCM Board. Annual Membership is valid from the date of Annual Meeting of the current term to the next Annual Meeting.
Ontario’s Not-for-Profit Corporations Act, 2010 (ONCA) took effect as of October 19, 2021. This means not-for-profit corporations previously governed under the Corporations Act had three years from the date ONCA came into force to review and amend their documents to conform with the new act. The changes aim to provide a modern, flexible framework for these organizations focusing on transparency, accountability, and governance. As a result of this act, ICCM has made steps to amend its by-laws, to incorporate the mandatory ONCA changes while staying true to ICCM’s mission and values. The new by-laws will be approved at our next Annual Meeting scheduled for Wednesday September 18th, 2024 at 7:00pm.
