Will voting be live?
Yes. It was previously announced that voting would be done sequentially (i.e., over a period of days after the discussions had ended). It has since been decided that the best practice for CASLI business is to do simultaneous voting (i.e., live, during the AGM).
What apps will be used to vote?
Two applications will be used to cast votes: the CASLI website and online forms. Attendees will access ballots on CASLI.ca to cast their individual vote. For proxy voters and affiliate chapters, EmailMeForms will be used.
How do you know only eligible CASLI members are voting?
By voting through CASLI.ca, we can ensure that only voting members will have access to the individual ballots.
Will votes be anonymous?
While the Executive Director, website administrators could see voter details, those details will not be available to other voting members or the public.
AGM Details for You The CASLI Board of Directors wants to ensure you have all of the details for the AGM on Wednesday. This information, along with the documents for the meeting, is available on casli.ca in the member section. If you have any questions, please email exec_dir@casli.ca. Registration: 30 minutes before the meeting Because of the platforms we are using on December 7, an RSVP will not be required. Instead, the meeting "doors" will open a half hour before the meeting's call to order to allow attendees to register their attendance. The registration form will be used to determine the quorum count. Once you have filled out the registration form, sit back and watch a slideshow video that outlines the recommendations, processes, and what you can do for the easiest experience as an attendee. You can use this time to chat with each other and relax before the meeting starts. Please make sure your preferred name is shown in Zoom. Discussions Chat will be open and activated for the whole meeting. Along with the in-camera discussions, the chats will be recorded. This includes any messages sent to all and directly to individuals. Someone will be monitoring the public chat feature and Raise Hand feature to watch for those who wish to speak to an item. While there is no official format to type to indicate your action, it is most useful if you type something like, "I'd like to speak in favour of motion," or "Queue me to the floor: opposed," or "Point of information." Once it is your turn, your name will be announced and you will be spotlighted.
Once the vote is called, two URLs will be shared in the chat:
Ten minutes has been allotted for voting. At the five-minute mark, a poll will be shared on Zoom. The poll will ask for a status update:
If you need more than ten minutes to vote or are having issues with the voting, please use the poll to indicate that you need more time. We will add five more minutes to the voting period and poll again at the 12-minute mark. Zoom Technical Support Many issues with Zoom are answered on the Zoom website. Please take the time to test the platform (zoom.us/test), especially if you are unfamiliar with it. If you have pinned a video to your screen, it may be helpful to unpin it. We will spotlight current speakers. Set your view settings to "Hide non-video participants" and "Gallery view" on your computer. Voting Technical Support To access the ballots on CASLI.ca, you will need to use the username and password to access the ballots on the CASLI website. The URL to each ballot (attendee, proxy, and affiliate chapters) will be shared at the AGM before voting on the item begins. In the chat, please type "TECH ISSUE: [Type of problem, e.g., can't see current speaker, can't vote]" and the chat monitors will direct someone to support you. |
After the Chair has called the question, the links to the two types of ballots will be typed in the Zoom chat. We've allotted ten minutes for voting. Just in case, we will share a poll on Zoom for voters to indicate if they need more time. Test the Process Attendee Ballot Sample (For all CASLI voting members) Absentee Ballot Sample (For proxy holders only)NOTES: Affiliate Chapters Ballot Sample has been sent to AC representatives vial email. |
