On Sunday December 7th, 2014, Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance (CTYA) held its fifth Annual General Meeting.
The meeting was initiated with a moment of silence, followed by elections for Council directors and Executives. Each nominee presented a speech to articulate why they should be elected for the position they were running for. The Chief Returning Officer supervised the election process.
The events that took place during 2013-2014 by CTYA were reviewed, and the accomplishments for each of the five councils were then presented and discussed. Following that, upcoming events for this year were also looked at.
