Day Three Roundup

2008 Triennial National Convention

The third and final day of our Convention was given over to election of a new National Executive and National Council to oversee the affairs of the Agriculture Union over the next three years. This union gathering marked the stepping down of Yves Ducharme as National President

Bob Kingston, for a dozen years our First Executive Vice-President, was acclaimed National President.. Three other Executive Vice-Presidents moved up one position. Fabian Murphy, who came to Quebec City as Regional Vice-President for the Eastern Atlantic Region, was elected to the then-vacant post of Fourth Executive Vice-President. A photo of the new five-person National Executive can be seen immediately below. From left to right: Howard Willems - Third National Executive Vice-President; Deborah Forsythe - First National Executive Vice-President; Bob Kingston - National President; Denis Sicard - Second National Executive Vice-President; and, Fabian Murphy - Fourth National Executive Vice-President.
