Our Leadership Team
Skate Canada’s Board of Directors is made up of 13 elected individuals. Overall governance, direction setting, strategic planning and strategic monitoring and evaluation are established by the Board of Directors and communicated to the Sections from the National Office. The Board meets throughout the year and takes major policy decisions to the wider membership of the organization through Skate Canada’s Annual General Meeting.
