ADD after the current paragraph 18 the following new paragraphs, and at the same time renumber the current paragraphs 19 through 36 to paragraphs 22 to 39:
19. The National Executive Board shall include one LGBTQ2SI representative.
20. This Representative will be elected by their peers at the National Pride Conference by a secret ballot majority vote for a three-year term. This conference shall include the standing committees on LGBTQ2SI issues established within the Regional and Quebec Councils. (It will also determine the description and language that will be used to describe LGBTQ2SI.)
21. In the event of a vacancy in the position of the LGBTQ2SI representative, the LGBTQ2SI Committee (i.e. The Canadian Council LGBTQ2SI Standing Committee) shall select from within their ranks, an interim representative to serve on the National Executive Board until the next LGBTQ2SI annual conference, at which time an election will take place.
