  • +["In case of an equality of votes either on a show of hands or on a ballot or on the results of electronic voting, if the chair of the meeting did not initially vote when the question was called, the chair of the meeting may call a second vote on the question and may exercise their vote during that second vote. For further certainty, in no case will the chair be permitted to exercise two (2) votes and the chair may only call a second vote if they have chosen, in their discretion, not to exercise their vote when the question was initially called. In addition, nothing in this By-law requires the chair of a meeting to call a second vote in the event of an equality of votes.\n44.1. Consensus Decision-Making. Unless otherwise required by the Act or the Articles, questions arising at any meeting of the Board shall be decided by a consensus of the Directors present at the meeting. A consensus will be considered to have been reached when no Director objects to the question on the floor of the meeting. Should the Chair determine, after a reasonable effort to achieve consensus has been made, that a consensus will not be reached regarding a particular question then the Chair shall refer the question to be decided by a majority of the votes cast on the question. In that event, each Director may exercise one (1) vote.", ["Votes aux rĂ©unions du conseil d'administration. En cas d'Ă©galitĂ© des voix lors d'un vote Ă  main levĂ©e, d'un scrutin ou des rĂ©sultats d'un vote Ă©lectronique, si le prĂ©sident de la rĂ©union n'a pas votĂ© initialement lorsque la question a Ă©tĂ© posĂ©e, il peut demander un second vote sur la question et peut exercer son droit de vote lors de ce second vote. Il est entendu qu'en aucun cas le prĂ©sident n'est autorisĂ© Ă  exercer deux (2) votes et qu'il ne peut demander un second vote que s'il a choisi, Ă  sa discrĂ©tion, de ne pas exercer son vote lorsque la question a Ă©tĂ© initialement posĂ©e. En outre, aucune disposition du prĂ©sent règlement n'oblige le prĂ©sident d'une rĂ©union Ă  demander un second vote en cas d'Ă©galitĂ© des voix.\nPrise de dĂ©cision par consensus. Sauf disposition contraire de la loi ou des statuts, les questions soulevĂ©es lors d'une rĂ©union du conseil d'administration sont tranchĂ©es par consensus des administrateurs prĂ©sents Ă  la rĂ©union. Le consensus est considĂ©rĂ© comme atteint lorsqu'aucun administrateur ne s'oppose Ă  la question au cours de la rĂ©union. Si le prĂ©sident estime, après avoir dĂ©ployĂ© des efforts raisonnables pour parvenir Ă  un consensus, qu'il ne sera pas possible de parvenir Ă  un consensus sur une question donnĂ©e, il soumet la question Ă  une dĂ©cision prise Ă  la majoritĂ© des voix exprimĂ©es sur la question. Dans ce cas, chaque administrateur dispose d'une (1) voix."]]
