You may be interested to know that we amended our Constitution at the Annual General Meeting to allow for temporary appointments to fill-in for members of the Executive who proceed on leave for extended periods. We are therefore seeking interested members to join the Executive when three of our colleagues serving on the CMCFA Executive will be proceeding on sabbatical leave from 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2023:

• Mohamed Douch (RMC Department of Political Science and Economics)

• Helen Luu (RMC Department of English, Culture and Communications); Note: Sylvain (Sly) Leblanc will be appointed Interim President during the period of sabbatical leave.

• Jennifer Scott (RMC Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering

These temporary appointments will be very important to help the CMCFA Executive operate effectively, and they may also offer an opportunity to try serving on the Executive without having to commit to a full term.

If you are interested in such a temporary appointment or if you have questions about what it may entail, please email our Vice-President (leblanc@cmcfa-apcmc.ca), with copies to our Secretary (oliveira@cmcfa-apcmc.ca) and Executive Assistant (execasst@cmcfa-apcmc.ca). We would ask you to respond by 10 June 2022, so that you may join us for our next meeting of the Executive later this month.

Sincerely,

Sylvain (Sly) Leblanc CMCFA Vice-President
