On April 24, 2007, the Board of Governors approved Policy 1014.  It sets out the process that Councils across the country must follow to conduct the election of their three Voting Members.  You can view Policy 1014 at http://sunshine.scouts.ca/bpp/firstpage.htm - Section 1000. 

Scouts Canada has a colourful schematic that will help you visualize the process.  To view it, click here:  “Council Election Schematic”.
