Cricket Canada statement on elections

Cricket Canada continues to use Facebook as the main platform for announcements- the web site continues to lag behind (Facebook requires user registration, the web is accessible to all, and strange as it may seem, some people don’t use Facebook).
“Cricket Canada AGM 2016 Update on Elections
Cricket Canada Annual General Meeting (AGM) concluded in Vancouver, BC over the weekend with all provincial delegates present in attendance. It was another successful and a very productive meeting with many fruitful discussions. Strategic decisions and key initiatives were taken to move Cricket in Canada forward.
It was unanimously agreed upon by directors to postpone the general elections that were to happen on Sunday March 20th; to be deferred for another 60 days. The decision was taken to maintain the transparency and communication in the election process to make it a seamless transition for all stakeholders. It was also decided unanimously that the existing board of directors will continue in their respective positions in the interim.
Thank you for your continued support and encouragement, we are looking forward to a successful year for Cricket in Canada in 2016.”

Given that the AGM itself was not announced to the membership at large until the week before, and there was no open call for nominations, it is fair to say that transparency and communication were issues associated with the election process.
