As we tackle our daily to-do lists and balance personal obligations with the demands of our careers,
it can often be difficult to set aside time for even
the simplest of tasks. One obligation that we should
never chose to forfeit, however, is our signatory
right and responsibility to vote for those individuals
who represent us-whether it be a governmental or
professional body.
Those who who are elected to OSPE's Board of
Directors are committed to ensuring that your profession is headed in the right direction-a direction
where your work is valued, and your voice heard.
As of March 19, 2018, all Professional, Associate,
Intern and Honourary members in good standing
will have the opportunity to vote in OSPE's 2018
Board of Directors election. OSPE's elections are
structured to ensure an annual turnover of onethird of our board members.
Your participation in OSPE's annual Board election does more than fill seats around a boardroom
table, your vote, strengthens the Board's ability
to effectively represent all our members. You help
OSPE play a critical role in effecting positive change
for the profession by ensuring that your advocacy
body represents your voice, needs and interests.

➝ You must submit your votes by April 16, 2018.

Election results will be announced at OSPE's Annual
General Meeting on May 8, 2018.

Seize the opportunity to help maintain a vibrant and progressive OSPE Board.
After all, it's your profession - it's your voice.
