Ramping up for the election - General Procedures
Hi all, As we will soon be having elections, I am just passing on to you some general procedures about how these are run. Specifics on actual elections timings, positions that are available and re-election qualifications will be sent out soon. Who can run for these positions? Paragraph 9 of our Rules of Procedures state that: “The candidates shall be unaffiliated individuals or members of different ALSs and must live in the region.” So, basically, any member of any of our ALSs or individual members can run in these elections. Who can nominate? Our Rules of Procedures are silent on this matter but it has always been seen as good form to have a nomination and a seconder from two different organizations, however this is not a rule. People can also run without nominations. Who can vote? Each active ALS in the NARALO is entitled to one vote. As well, the individual members are entitled to one vote from their membership. Our Rules of Procedure are clear on what makes an ALS active or not. Paragraph 16 states: “When an ALS representative does not vote in 3 consecutive NARALO elections or does not contribute a comment on ICANN policy through collaboration on the At-Large discussion lists in 12 consecutive months, it automatically loses its voting rights and active status within the NARALO.” Staff is presently compiling a list of active ALSs so that we can know which have voting rights and for quorum. If anybody has any questions, please let me know, D ᑕᓕᓐ ᑕᒻᓴᓐ ᓄᓇᓕᖕᓂ ᖃᕆᓴᐅᔭᕐᕕᒋᔭᐅᔪᓐᓇᕐᑐᓄᑦ ᑎᑎᕋᖅᑎ ᑮᓇᐅᔭᓕᕆᓂᕐᒧᑦ ᐊᐅᓚᑦᑎᔨᒃᑯᑦ ᐱᔨᑦᑎᕋᖅᕕᖓᑦ ᐃᓕᓐᓂᐊᕐᓂᓕᕆᔨᒃᑯᑦ ᓄᓇᕗᑦ ᒐᕙᒪᖓᑦ ᑎᑎᖅᑲᓂᐊᕐᕕᖓ 1000, ᐊᓪᓚᕝᕕᖓ 910 ᐃᖃᓗᐃᑦ, ᓄᓇᕗᑦ dthompson@gov.nu.ca ᐅᖄᓚᐅᑎ: 867 975-5631 ᓱᑲᑦᑐᒃᑰᕈᑎ: 867 975-5610 Taliin Taamsan Nunalingni Qaritauyani Atuqtauningitnun Titiraqtia Nunavut Kavamangat Titiraqarvia 1000, Nayugaa 910 Iqaluit, Nunavut dthompson@gov.nu.ca Hivayautik : 867 975-5631 Kayumiktuk : 867 975-5610 Darlene Thompson Community Access Program Administrator/N-CAP Corporate Services Division Department of Education Government of Nunavut PO Box 1000, Station 910 Iqaluit, Nunavut, X0A 0H0 dthompson@gov.nu.ca Ph: 867 975-5631 Fax: 867 975-5610 Darlene Thompson Administratrice du programme d’accès communautaire Division des services ministériels Ministère de l’Éducation Gouvernement du Nunavut Case postale 1000, Succursale 910 Iqaluit Nunavut, X0A 0H0 dthompson@gov.nu.ca Tél. : 867 975-5631 Téléc. : 867 975-5610
