2018 CONVENTION CALL 1. GENERAL Commands, branches and sections of The Royal Canadian Legion are invited to assemble their delegates in Winnipeg, MB for the 47th Dominion Convention. This Convention Call is issued under the direction of the Dominion Executive Council in accordance with Section 901 of The General By-Laws. 2. PROGRAM A detailed program is enclosed, however, the following is provided as a summary of activities: Registration Workshops Opening Ceremony Commences Saturday, 25 August 2018 at the Winnipeg RBC Convention Centre and concludes Sunday, 26 August 2018 Four sessions are scheduled for Saturday afternoon, 25 August 2018 at the Winnipeg RBC Convention Centre Sunday, 26 August 2018 at the Winnipeg RBC Convention Centre Business Sessions Commence following the Opening Ceremony on Sunday, 26 August 2018, Winnipeg RBC Convention Centre and conclude Tuesday, 28 August 2018 Installation and Closing Ceremonies Tuesday afternoon, 28 August 2018, following the close of business 3. DELEGATES a. Branches: To determine your branch representation: every branch is entitled to send one accredited delegate for every 100 voting members or fraction thereof, which includes ordinary, associate and affiliate-members (Subsection 903.a). branch representation is based on the number of paid-up voting members at the end of the preceding calendar year (Subsection 903.b). However, every delegate to a Dominion Convention must be paid up to the end of the current year (Section 905). Delegates, therefore, must be members in good standing and paid up to 31 December 2018. branches formed on or after 1 January 2018 are entitled to send one delegate to the convention; the delegate must have their dues paid up to 31 December 2018 (Subsection 903.c). 4 CONVENTION CALL // 47TH DOMINION CONVENTION

It is vital to the successful organization of the convention that branches pay particular attention to the above constitutional requirements. b. Dominion Executive Council: Voting members of the Dominion Executive Council who are not accredited branch delegates shall be accredited delegates to the convention (Subsection 907.a), however, they may only carry proxies if they are an accredited branch delegate as defined in Section 911 of The General By-Laws. c. Past Dominion Presidents: All Past Dominion Presidents who are not accredited branch delegates shall be accredited delegates to Convention (Subsection 907.b), however, they may only carry proxies if they are an accredited branch delegate as defined in Section 911 of The General By-Laws. 4. DELEGATE ACCREDITATION: CREDENTIAL CERTIFICATE To become an accredited delegate, branches are to complete the enclosed Credential Certificate and forward to your Provincial Command office. Additional copies may be obtained from your command office or login to the member s portal at https://portal.legion.ca/login and click Branch and Command Resources, then Dominion Convention. It is important that the Credential Certificate be completed properly. The Convention Credentials Committee must ensure that individuals registering as delegates are properly accredited; if incorrect or incomplete information is received, the member s accreditation could be jeopardized. Provincial Commands will provide delegate lists to the Convention Credentials Committee prior to the opening of registration. Important: It is extremely important that only delegates accredited by their branch be permitted to take an active part in deciding matters of policy at a Dominion Convention. The Convention Credentials Committee does not wish to turn away any properly accredited delegate; neither does the committee wish to permit unauthorized persons to vote on matters of Legion policy. 5. VOTING AND PROXIES Only accredited delegates may vote at convention (Section 914). Each delegate will have one vote; when an election ballot vote is required, however, proxies may be used. Any delegate, accredited by the branch of which he is a member, may carry, in addition to his own credentials, up to four proxy credentials. These proxies may be from any branch or branches within his own Provincial Command (Section 911). Proxies must be registered at the opening of the convention and may only be used when an election ballot vote is required (Section 912). Every proxy, to be valid, shall include a credential certificate naming the delegate entitled to register such proxy (Section 913). A branch that wishes to be represented by proxy must complete a Credential Certificate in order that the delegate designated as the holder of the proxy can make use of the vote(s) at their disposal. Strict attention to this requirement will prevent delay and possible disappointment when credentials are being examined by the Convention Credentials Committee. Important: In order for a delegate to carry proxies, the person must be an accredited delegate of their own branch. 6. REGISTRATION PROCESS Delegates and observers will register at the Winnipeg RBC Convention Centre. Upon payment of the registration fee, delegates and observers will be provided with a delegate kit and meeting book; they will then be directed to their respective Provincial Command desk where they will be issued a nametag and ballot book(s) as applicable. 7. REGISTRATION FEES The fees, payable in cash only at the time of registration in Winnipeg, are: Delegate: $60 Observer: $20 47TH DOMINION CONVENTION // CONVENTION CALL 5

8. RESOLUTIONS Resolutions to be dealt with at convention: shall be submitted from a branch through the respective Provincial Command (Subsection 919.a). may be submitted by a branch or branches, command or standing committee of Dominion Command (Subsection 919.b). must be received at Dominion Command at least 112 days prior to the opening of the convention (Subsection 919.c). Deadline for receipt of resolutions at Dominion Command is 6 May 2018. Late resolutions: Resolutions received after 6 May 2018 will be considered as Late Resolutions. Late resolutions will be referred to the Dominion Executive Council meeting prior to the Dominion Convention. Only those resolutions considered urgent will be presented to the convention for consideration; resolutions deemed not to be urgent will be returned to the respective Provincial Command following the Dominion Convention. Important: Branches are to ensure that all resolutions are submitted prior to the deadline established by their respective Provincial Command. Allowance must be made for the length of time mail takes in transit. To assist you in arranging your hotel accommodations, a list of hotels in downtown Winnipeg with which the Legion has reserved blocks of rooms is included in this package. This list details the room types available, rates and proximity to the Winnipeg RBC Convention Centre. To make a room reservation, delegates are to call the telephone number for the hotel of their choice and quote the special code listed to receive the discounted rate. The deadline date for making your hotel reservation is 25 June 2018. It is strongly recommended that delegates make their arrangements as early as possible as reservations after this date are subject to availability. Delegates and observers not requiring accommodation must inform their Provincial Command of their attendance in order that their names can be included on the master attendance list, which will be distributed to command registration desks. This requirement also applies to those persons traveling by motor home. 9.
