Ever sat through a meeting and wondered why someone said “I move to table this motion” or “point of order”? Join the Parliamentary Society of Toronto for a hands-on introduction to the rules that govern effective, fair meetings everywhere — from city council to your local condo board.
Whether you're a community volunteer, a board member, a student, or just curious about how formal meetings actually work, this session is designed to be approachable for complete beginners while still offering value to those with some experience.
Society meetings cover:
1. The basics of Robert's Rules of Order and The Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure
2. How motions, amendments, and voting actually work
3. Common meeting scenarios and how to handle them
