The CMG Meritorious Service Award is presented to outstanding Guild
members who have served the union and membership on a long-term
basis, sacrificing personal and professional time, and who have
completed projects of extraordinary benefit to the membership as a
whole. The award is presented at the CMG's biennial convention.
Nominations may come from the membership, the executive or members
of the Selection Committee. For nominations to be considered, they
must be accompanied by an explanation from the nominator about why
the member deserves the award. Nominations should be addressed to
the Award Selection Committee at info@cmg.ca, and include answers to
the questions below:
1. What have been the main achievements and accomplishments of the
candidate in serving the Guild?
2. Give us some specific examples of ways the candidate has been
effective. How have they made a difference to you or others around
you? For example, have they been instrumental during a crucial time
in some way? Have they demonstrated leadership skills? If so, how?
3. How many years has the person you are nominating served the
Guild?
4. In what capacities/on what committees have they served? Are there
any other people on those committees who should be contacted by us
to talk about your candidate?
5. If relevant, has the person been involved in other labour-related
activities outside the Guild?
The selection committee will be appointed by the Guild’s National
Executive Committee. Because it is the highest honour bestowed by
the union, the Meritorious Service Award will not be given unless
judged by the National Executive to be warranted.
CMG staff and members of the National Executive Committee are not
eligible for the Meritorious Service Award.
