In accordance with the Canada Not-For-Profit Corporations Act, the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation is governed by two bodies: the Foundation’s Members and its Board of Directors. These diverse, dynamic, and deeply engaged governance teams volunteer to provide fundamental guidance to the Foundation as it carries out its mission.
Foundation Members
The Members elect the Board of Directors, approve amendments to by-laws and appoint the external auditors. They are elected for a renewable five-year term.
Board of Directors
Directors oversee the management of Foundation business and activities. They are elected by the Members of the Foundation for a renewable two-year term.
