TAC is governed by a Board of Directors which has the important responsibilities of understanding members' expectations and setting policies, directions and annual budgets to achieve them.
Elected by TAC’s membership for three-year terms, Directors are not compensated for their service and are key volunteer leaders in the organization.
At the 2016 Annual General Meeting convened in September in Toronto, three Directors in the federal/provincial/territorial member category, two in the municipal category and two in the members-at-large category were elected. Following the election, three vacancies have since arisen. In accordance with its by-laws, the Board will appoint candidates to fill those vacancies until the next Annual General Meeting, which will be convened in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador in 2017.
