Gordy is apparently staying on as president but we haven't heard as to who is running for the other positions...I checked the ATA website but couldn't find anything.

I think official nominations are usually made that morning, but I'm sure anyone interested has already approached members for interest.

Well, for all of those who do not like the way things are at the present, now is your chance to step up and put your name out there.

Sometimes it is better to remain silent and thought to be a fool, rather than to speak out and removing all doubt...

Not me Molly.
If it looks like it and smells like it, I don't have to taste it and then have someone tell me to spit it out..

There you go again Mr Big Mouth, speaking of which you know f. a. about. The beaurocracy in This ATA is set up so that no one can step up to the plate and swing away. The so called "constitution" has been changed to keep the status quo..
By the way, is this "Blythe" place, just something you are hiding behind or are you an Alberta trapper. I didn't ask if you were a member, but a trappper in AB.
.Just to clear the air, we don't need any more direction from the east regarding politics at any level..so keep talking, there is no doubt in my mind....

Loks like another, low volume bobblehead just stepped up ....lol

I don't have a dog in this hunt, but as far as a constitution change is concerned, that is something always passed by membership, usually is a special resolution and membership is advised of it 21 days in advance.

It is not something that pops up out of the blue or something somebody sneaks in. In addition, for it to be valid, it also needs to be approved by the company's branch.

It's a process... nothing nefarious there at all.
