Submit a Resolution

Each year, we encourage all dairy producers in Canada to submit non-binding resolutions to Lactanet. To be eligible, a Resolution can only be accepted if it relates to Lactanet business activities, including its products, services, and policies. Before you submit a Resolution please ensure you check all the boxes.

To be eligible, all Resolutions must be:

• Submitted by a licensed Canadian dairy farmer (you are not required to be a Lactanet customer)
• Supported by four (4) other licensed Canadian dairy farmers
• Submitted using the official on-line form or downloadable PDF Resolutions form
• Complete, including the agreement to the terms and conditions stated on the form
• Written in a respectful manner and free from disparage on any individual or organization
• Received with explicit consent to publish the names of the submitter and supporters publicly
• Received by the Lactanet Secretary to the Board by the deadline of March 1 (5:00pm EST)
• Presented by the mover (or designate) in a public on-line forum on March 28

Resolutions may be withdrawn by the mover at any time.

Posting

All eligible resolutions shall be posted publicly to this website on March 18th, 2024. This includes the names and provinces of the originator/submitter who proposed the Resolution, the four (4) individuals who supported the Resolution, along with any relevant background details as deemed appropriate by Lactanet to ensure complete and factual information.

At the discretion of the Board, Resolutions that are similar in nature may be combined for efficiency.

Presentations

On March 28, 2024, each person (or their *designate) who has submitted an eligible resolution will have the opportunity to publicly present their Resolution for a maximum of four (4) minutes. In the event that Resolutions are combined due to a similar subject, the Resolution that was received first shall be selected to present.  (*Designate – the resolution submitter may select one of their supporters or the Mover to present)

Resolutions Presentation: March 28, 2024 from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM (EST)
