On Sunday October 28th 2012, Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance (CTYA) held its third Annual General Meeting at Markham Civic Centre.
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.
In the second half of the AGM, the events that took place during 2011-2012 by CTYA were reviewed, and the accomplishments for each of the five councils were then presented and discussed. Upcoming events for this year were also discussed. Special projects were also reviewed.
The CTYA’s vision is to empower Canadian Tamil Youth to become outstanding leaders and citizens in our society. With much accomplishments and experience already under its belt, CTYA is on its way to greater success.
