EXECUTIVE BODY
The Provincial Executive runs the union’s current work between Conventions. It is an executive body: its job is to carry out the members’ will, not create a separate source of power.
The Provincial Executive runs the union’s current work between Conventions. It is an executive body: its job is to carry out the members’ will, not create a separate source of power.
Members need decisions made in real time, but speed does not erase the mandate. Every Executive action must fit the Constitution, program, roadmap and approved budget.
Its central work is bargaining better collective agreements, improving working conditions and material well-being, protecting rights, distributing assistance and building useful member programs.
That may include housing support, education, partnerships with schools, health facilities, camps for children and practical help for families—when Convention has authorized the direction and resources.
Convention delegates elect Executive members and Vice-Presidents. In the permanent model, all members directly elect the President, who chairs the Executive.
Election creates a duty, not ownership. The Executive remains accountable to the same members whose authority reached it through elections and Convention.
Without a separate mandate, the Executive cannot change matters affecting members’ rights, finances, well-being, political direction, strategic commitments or relationships with other organizations.
It may spend only the funds assigned to its work. Major strategic use of shared assets goes to Locals under one Local, one vote.
Decisions, reports, contracts, budget performance and results must be published in the secure member portal. Members should not need inside contacts to discover what their Executive is doing.
Each Vice-President reports on a portfolio, and the President then reports on the Executive as a whole. Clear responsibility prevents failure from disappearing inside a collective title.
At the Mid-Term Accountability Conference, delegates hold one required open vote after hearing and discussing the reports. Confidence means the Executive continues; no confidence ends all its authority immediately.
A no-confidence decision requires quorum of two thirds and at least 61 percent of the conference’s full membership. Convention Council then prepares a new election at an Extraordinary Convention.
Decisions, reports, budget, actual expenses and contracts are published in the closed section of the portal. The member sees the relationship between the program, the amount spent and the result obtained.
In the middle of the term, the reporting conference holds a mandatory confidence vote. In case of distrust, the powers of the whole PE are terminated immediately and the Convention of Cancila is transferred to the new Convention.
