What's to get? UncleScrooge's (whoever it really is) spews nothing but nonsense.

I however have a very real meeting with some leprechauns about a super top secret north shore mountain that has the most amazing mountain biking trails ever seen on this planet. Its a Xanadu of riding: perfectly maintained by real trail fairies, no erosion, the smoothest landings you've ever seen, and no traffic to be found. The climbing trail is lined by goddess' who cheer you on as if you're cresting Ventoux. All of this is unknown, hidden by magical spells originally cast by unicorns.

I don't get it. Why meet with the NSMBA about issuing permits or signage. Isn't that a landmanager responsibility? Shouldn't he be meeting with DNV, Metro Van and now CMHC/ProvBC about this?

Sharon,

Good question(s).

I am sure Lee can explain the detailed impact of the new BC Societies Act on organizations such as the NSMBA. In simple terms the new Act makes the NSMBA accountable not only to its members but to every person it impacts no matter how small the impact. The NSMBA receives funding from the DNV. As a result, on November 16, 2016 the NSMBA becomes accountable to all DNV ratepayers including I and, I am sure to the consternation of many posters here, Mrs. Monica Craver.

In a related topic, I am considering running for the NSMBA Board of Directors and inquire generally from all posters here who are NSMBA members what matters should the NSMBA be addressing given the new Societies Act.

Best regards

Yeah right. So in theory you're saying each and every citizen in the District has some right to demand a meeting with the NSMBA or any other District funded non profit. Really? Or would it be that the contact would be through the municiple government? You have no standing in the local government so you have no right to demand any meeting. You would certainly be welcome at the NSMBA general meeting. As would Mrs. Craver although the audience will be less than receptive.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.

Hazen,

When you ran for counsel or whatever the heck it was in NV you came in LAST PLACE.

You are probably one of, if not THE, most disliked member on this board. A board that is made up largely of NSMBA members and you think you have any chance of becoming a Director?? How?

As I compiled in a previous post you have demeaned Women, Gays, Straights, Natives, frogs as well as ALL members of this site's chat forum.

PLEASE make sense of this to all us possums…

:lol:

Yeah because the last time she tried to start a shitstorm it backfired on her a little. Thanks Monica!

Being cheap is OK. Being a clueless sanctimonious condescending douchebag is just Vlad's MO.

Completely unrelated. Is there a debate or some such prior to the choosing of the Directors of the NSMBA?

Is it sick that I am considering attending the AGM to see this? Will it end like that strata meeting in Coquitlam? 🙄

Does this mean you are planning to attend the NSMBA AGM?

No way I am missing this!
