PEI Representative Needed for CKC’s Advocacy Committee!


We need a CKC member representative from Prince Edward Island (PEI) to join CKC’s new national Advocacy Committee for the 2024-2026 term. Representatives for the other provinces were appointed by the CKC Board of Directors this summer. These committed volunteers will help us to advance CKC’s strategic advocacy priorities and work with CKC staff to represent these priorities with government in each province across the country.

Due to the many challenges impacting purebred dogs and CKC members today, the Advocacy Committee will help shape how we try and influence government, in support of the health and well-being of purebred dogs in Canada.

Applicants must be voting members. Voting members are considered those members who are in good standing and who have completed one year of continuous membership in the Club. To be considered, please complete this fillable form. Send your completed form by email to advocacy@ckc.ca with “Advocacy Committee” noted in the subject line.

Applications should be received no later than September 26 at 11:59 p.m. ET.
