It has come to our attention that
there is a little confusion over Meetings & Conventions at Zone level
and the present Provincial government protocols which are in place. As
Zone Conventions would normally be taking place in the near future, I
would like to remind you that under current guidelines it is not
possible to hold a Zone Convention and remain within the Provincial
guidelines. The full number of Branch delegates, plus Zone Council
members, plus any guests that would attend, would I believe in all
instances, be over the maximum number of 50 for indoor gatherings.
(Restricting numbers, or making the Convention by invitation only, makes
this un-democratic and will leave us open to criticism).
It must be kept in mind that the Legion does not possess the authority
to allow Branches, Zones, Districts or Commands the authority to
circumvent or disregard the rules placed upon citizens of our great
Province by any level of our government. As we all know, these protocols
are in place to keep us safe from COVID-19.
Thank you Comrades and stay safe!
