Spring 2021 General Assembly

The Medical Students’ Society of McGill University (MSS) will be hosting a Spring 2021 Emergency General Assembly (GA) on June 3rd, 2021 at 6:30pm, location TBA.

Article 4.1.2 of the MSS Constitution states: “The General Assembly shall have full authority over the Society. The General Council and Class Councils are bound by all decisions made by a General Assembly.”

The GA is a great opportunity for students to (1) bring forward topics for discussion, to (2) formulate stances taken by the MSS, and to (3) outline actions mandated by the student body to the MSS council.

As well, here are our Standing Rules to give a brief overview of the proceedings of the Assembly, and to explain the basics of how it works!

Once again, we’ll be allowing students with mandatory, scheduled clinical activities to proxy their vote. Anyone who is interested in a proxy vote is invited to read through the entirety of the agreement, and to reach out to Yseult Gibert directly if they have any further questions with regards to who is eligible to proxy their vote. All submissions are subject to review, and will be confirmed shortly after submission. Proxy forms will be accepted until Wednesday, April 1st at 11:59PM.
