Council
The Council is the College’s board of directors. All Council members share the responsibility of fulfilling the College’s statutory mandate to regulate the veterinary profession in the public interest. Council members contribute their expertise, judgment and experience gained through their professional experiences. Council members participate in the College’s work in committees and contribute to the development of policies and programs. Council and Committee members serve the veterinary profession in the public interest.
By-Law change during transition period
At the June 2024 Legacy Council meeting, Council discussed a proposed change to the College By-Laws concerning the election of Council members. As Council moves through the transition period, the Legacy Council will tend to member matters and the operations of the College under the Veterinarians Act. The Transition Council, including the Legacy Council members and three appointed veterinary technicians, will be developing new processes under the new legislation.
To support a smooth transition, the By-Laws were changed to extend the terms of current Council members until the new Veterinary Professionals Act receives final proclamation.
