Credit Unions are unique in how they conduct business and serve their members. Why? Because we are guided by the Co-operative Principles; seven internationally accepted Co-operative Principles that help shape Credit Union business decisions and governance. One such principle is Democratic Member Control. Simply put, our Board of Directors is elected by our members. Once elected, the Board represents the interests of all members; The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the Credit Union is managed and operated in a sound and prudent manner. They provide vision, leadership, and direction for the success of our Credit Union, today and into the future.

The Board of Directors consists of nine members who hold office for three years on a rotating basis. Every year, Directors are elected to replace those retiring. If the number of qualified persons nominated is equal to the number of vacancies to be filled, those persons shall be declared elected by acclamation. In the event there are more nominations than vacancies, an election will take place at all branch locations the week prior to the Annual Meeting.

To ensure fairness, the Nominating Committee oversees the nominating and election process and counts all ballots cast in the election in accordance with the Credit Union Act and rules found within. This process and tabulation of ballots is carried out in a manner to ensure confidentiality. Election results are announced at the Annual General Meeting.
