Another old chestnut!

Looks like we're staying with Pigeon. The straw poll came out 51%+ in favour of target but 75% was needed to take the matter forward.

It will no doubt be discussed again once the dust has settled!

A shame, particularly when the majority voted in favour. As I've said previously a name change makes absolute sense. It seems the CPSA are hamstrung by their articles of association. A 75% threshold is a very high barrier to reach.

What’s this straw poll? I’m in the CPSA and this is the first I’ve heard about it!

Indeed, I’m no longer a cpsa member and I was wondering why they hadn’t apparently conducted a proper vote on the subject.

We (Members) were emailed a newsletter a while back which discussed it and included a link for members to vote.

I suppose it will bring it in line with other countries, or do other countries call it pigeon too
