Resolution Submissions

Resolution Submissions for the 2026 AGM

Deadline for Special Resolutions: February 14, 2026

Deadline for Ordinary Resolutions: April 12, 2026 (for inclusion in the final AGM Booklet circulated by email)

Members in good standing (with voting rights) are invited to submit Special and Ordinary Resolutions for consideration at the 2026 Annual General Meeting (AGM). Resolutions are one way for members to bring forward important issues for discussion and action. A well-prepared resolution can strengthen BCCPAC’s advocacy and ensure meaningful impact.

We urge all member PACs and DPACs to thoroughly read the following documents to effectively participate in the resolution process:

Resolutions Guide: A comprehensive manual detailing the steps and considerations in crafting a resolution.
Policy 4020 (Member Resolutions): Outlines the policy containing protocols for submitting proposed resolutions for consideration at the Annual General Meeting (AGM).

Consult the Resolutions List & Archive to see whether your resolution or a similar one already exists.

Early Submission Recommended

We strongly recommend submitting both Ordinary and Special Resolutions as soon as possible to allow enough time for review and discussion:

The Resolutions Committee can work with proposers to refine wording, ensure compliance with Policy 4020 (Member Resolutions), and resolve any issues that might prevent a resolution from being accepted.
Early submissions allow members more time to review and discuss resolutions before the AGM.
The AGM Booklet will be updated periodically with vetted resolutions. Resolutions submitted after April 12, 2026, will not be included in the email distribution of the AGM Booklet.

Before Submitting a Resolution

Before submitting, consider:

Whether the issue meets the requirements in Policy 4020 (Member Resolutions),
Whether the issue can be resolved in other ways.
Whether you have already approached BCCPAC to see if the issue is already being addressed, if it has been considered previously, whether it can be addressed, etc.
Taking the time necessary to ensure the resolution is clearly explained and supported with a strong rationale, even if it means the submission needs to wait until a future AGM.
Ensuring the resolution is necessary, strategic, and contributes meaningfully to BCCPAC’s work.

Restrict the Board’s borrowing powers until the next AGM (Bylaw 8.7).

Advocate for changes to BC’s public education system.
