They explored the roles and responsibilities of Council, the critical importance of self-regulation and protecting the public interest, as well as practical topics like what it means to be a Councillor: from elections and what makes an ideal nominee to work load, benefits, and time commitment.
This fall, there will be six seats up for election for three-year terms that begin in January 2026. They include five opportunities for Architects and one for a Licensed Technologist.
