Change in nominations
Municipal nominations in the
past have seemed to be some-
what haphazard affairs. They
were held at public meetings and
the results sometimes depend-
ed on just how many people
turned out. A person could be
nominated by only a nominator
and with one seconder to make
the nomination complete.
The provincial government,
however has changed all this with
the enactment of Bill 'P7, which
was passed this spring, govern-
ing all municipal election pro-
cedures.
The main thrust of the dif-
ferences in nomination is that
the onus is no longer on the
nomination, but on the person
nominated.
The nomination sheet must
be signed by at least ten elect-
ors who are entitled to "vote for
that office. The nomination must
state the name and address of
each elector, as well as the,
name ,address, and occupation
of the person nominated, and the
office for which he or she has
been nominated.
No nomination is valid, how-
ever, unless it is accompanied
by written consent and declar-
ation of qualification by the per-
son nominated. The onus is on
that person to file a bona fide
nomination paper.
Eligibility to vote or be a
candidate in the municipal el-
ection has been expanded. Per-
sons are no longer required to
own or rent property in the
municipality. A person would
be entitled to be' an elector or
candidate in the municipal el-
ection if he is resident in such
nunicipality at any time during
the period of enumeration (the
five weeks following Labour Day),
a Canadian citizen or British
subject, 18 years of age or older
and not disqualified or other-
wise prohibited from voting by
law.
A non-resident of the mun-
icipality at the time of the en-
umeration is entitled to vote pro-
viding he is the owner or tenant
of land in the municipality or the
spouse of such a person and
meets the other mentioned qual-
ifications.
Nominations may be submitt-
ed to the clerk starting November
9 and until 5 p.m. on the final
Clay of nominations, November 13.
The nomination paper must be
filed in the clerk's office during
regular hours and must be cer-
tified by the clerk. If the nom-
ination paper is incomplete or
incorrect, the clerk must give
notice of the rejection im-
mediately by registered mail to
other candidates for that office.
If he is satisfied with the nom-
ination paper, the clerk must cer-
tify so in writing. -
A person nominated for an
office may withdraw by the per-
son nominated and to all pre-
senting his written affidavit to
the clerk before 5 p.m. the day
following nomination day.
If a person has been nominated
for more than one office, he may
signify his withdrawal rom one
or more offices in the same
manner. If he neglects to do this,
he shall be deemed to be nom-
inated for the office for which
he was first nominated and to have
withdrawn his nomination for any
other office.
