{{Transitioning an Existing Society TOC}}A non-profit society's bylaws set out the rules for governing and operating the society. When the new ''[[Societies Act]]'' became law on November 28, 2016, most existing societies had some bylaws that were inconsistent with the new Act. As of that date, those bylaws ceased to have effect. If you haven't yet had a chance to do so, conducting a review of your society's bylaws is highly recommended to harmonize them with the new Act. It also presents an opportunity to make positive organizational change. | {{Transitioning an Existing Society TOC}}A non-profit society's bylaws set out the rules for governing and operating the society.
