- Admin History/Bio
- The Plenary Sessions (as they were then known) were the final legislative resort of Canadian Jewry. They were held every second year, alternately in Toronto and Montreal, though this was not adhered to every time. (Once Montreal had two sessions in sequence). The Central Region held voting sessions in Toronto, at which delegate would be elected. The programme involved all the activities and projects of Congress by way of written and oral reports. Efforts were made - not always successful - to allow opportunity for discussion. The Resolutions Committee was a particularly hard-working unit. Resolutions embodied the policies and programme of Canadian Jewish Congress for the following 2 or 3 years. International speakers were always a feature of the Plenary.
