Honourary membership is presented to an individual who has rendered distinguished service to the profession, whether resident in Canada or elsewhere. The Honourary Member does not pay any fee, cannot vote at any meeting or hold any elected office in the association. The Honourary Member will be sent notice of every general meeting and may speak at any such meeting. The Council may not grant Honourary Membership to more than two people in any one year, and there shall not be any more than ten Honourary Members at any one time. Honourary Members are selected by Council upon the recommendation of a committee of two senior members of the CVMA appointed by Council.
