The Canadian Musicians Co-operative is governed by a Board of Directors representing all three stakeholder groups. Our inaugural Board was appointed at the time of incorporation and is serving an initial two or three-year term.

Our model is a “Policy and Governance” board, providing necessary oversight and setting long-term policy and fiscal direction.

The Council of Officers focuses on the value the Co-op brings to the community, defining standards, expectations, and performance outcomes according to the aspirations of the organization. Clarifying and setting outcomes and creating and delivering programs to achieve success are the primary duties of the Council of Officers who meet formally, six times per year.

Appointed by the Board of Directors, Council members serve a two-year, renewable term of office. They are the substance of our organizational capacity and provide quarterly reports to the Board of Directors. Council members with an (*) are interim appointments until the next AGM or Board meeting where they will be formally approved.

Council members each chair an optional council sub-committee in their area of interest, expertise, or geographic location. If you have an interest in joining a committee, please reach out to the appropriate chairperson.
