You’re Invited!

National Co-Chairs Karen Gansel and Mark Vulliamy and the Board of Directors request the honour of your presence at our 101st ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING.

This is a virtual meeting via our Zoom platform.

NOTE: This AGM will be preceded by readings by the 2022 Fred Kerner Book Award shortlisted authors, followed by the announcement of this year’s winner. We will also be celebrating CAA’s national and branch volunteers via the Alan Sangster Volunteer Award and the inaugural Jean Kay Award. The AGM will follow approximately 15 minutes after these announcements.
