CBA-NT is governed by our Branch bylaws and policies along with the bylaws of the CBA. Led by our President, our Executive Committee is responsible for advancing the work of CBA-NT. They ensure the necessary resources for Branch operations, and oversee the outcomes of our advocacy, programs and activities.
Our Council provides a forum for CBA-NT leaders to learn, inform and promote the work of the CBA in Northwest Territories. Council serves as an advisory group to the Executive Committee.
Our Executive Director leads the Northwest Territories Branch operations so we can support and serve our members.
National governance
Our national association is governed by a President, supported by a 15-member Board of Directors. The National Board represents the diversity of Canada’s legal profession, including practice types, experience, skills, geography and more. All provinces and territories have a seat at the table. CBA Board members are elected by the current Board of Directors, Branch presidents and National Section chairs.
Each member serves a two-year term. Board member terms are staggered so only some of the Board change each year.
