  • Members to Vote on Bylaw Change That Realign RNAO's Chapter Boundaries
    Members to vote on bylaw change that realign RNAO’s chapter boundaries t a meeting of RNAO’s board of directors held Feb. 22, 2020, and following consultation with members at the Feb. 21, 2020 assembly meeting, a motion was passed to approve a proposed amendment to ABylaw 3.0. The board proposal would alter chapter and region boundaries so they follow boundaries of Ontario’s provincial electoral ridings. The proposed change is designed to better position how RNAO’s membership is organized geographically across the province with the political activities of the association. Ontario changed its riding boundaries ahead of the 2018 provincial election so its ridings were more closely aligned with federal ridings, which changed for the 2015 federal election. The board believes the proposed change would continue to foster and strengthen relationships members and chapter executives, in particular, have created with MPPs and MPs and facilitate future political action at the municipal level where responsibility for so many issues related to determinants of health lies. Currently, ridings in some chapters crossover into neighbouring chapters, which can lead to confusion and splits responsibility for organizing political action events among chapters. Realigning chapters would also provide members with the opportunity to create stronger relationships with their community leaders and local media. Under the proposed amendment, no new regions would be created; however, chapter boundary changes will have implications for region boundaries thereby triggering the need for the bylaw change. Four new chapters would be created: York East, York West, Mississauga and Brampton. The proposed realignment would add four consultation representatives to RNAO’s network of voting delegates.
