I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that we have reached the midway point of the inaugural NPF election campaign period. I would ask you to take the time and view each of the candidate’s information

Campaign material providing information on each candidate can be viewed here: (https://npf-fpn.com/election-candidates/)

Voting will begin October 25 and continue until November 7. All members and reservists will receive ballots through their GroupWise email OR through their personal email if they self identified with the NPF. Members will be able to cast ballots for:

1. 1 National President;
2. 3 selections for National Vice Presidents; and
3. All Regional Directors for their specific Division (1, 2 or 3 depending on Division).

(i.e. in BC a member can cast ballots for 3 Directors, 3 VPs and 1 President / a member in Saskatchewan 1 Director, 3 VPs and 1 President).

We hope you’ll take time to review the information about each candidate’s background and other key considerations before you vote in this important election. Those elected will form your inaugural Board of Directors of NPF.

As previously noted, a subsequent election for local representatives will take place after this election, which will determine your local NPF contact and provide an opportunity for all members to gain important and valuable labour relations experience while having a voice at the table.

Candidates are reminded of their assertation of good conduct throughout the campaign period.

Candidates are also reminded that no campaigning can take place at or on any RCMP facility or during work hours – including the use of the GroupWise email system.

Good luck to all. Thank you to all candidates for stepping forward and to all members, in advance, for participating in this election process.

Chris Hoffman
Chief Electoral Officer
