Month: June 2023

Every year the Association of Municipal Managers, Clerks, and Treasurers of Ontario (AMCTO) organizes an annual conference.

The 2023 AMCTO conference is a unique opportunity for municipal professionals, key vendors and suppliers, and special guests to attend. It’s the place to exchange new ideas, and explore important topics, such as internet voting for Ontario municipalities!

Known as ‘The Municipal Experts’, AMCTO offers a breadth of expertise and knowledge through year-round education and professional development programming. Also, through our members across a range of municipal operation areas and legislative issues. They are recognized as an influential voice for local government professionals regarding key management and legislative issues affecting the sector.

Simply Voting is attending the 2023 AMCTO conference, which is taking place June 11-14 in Niagara Falls! We’re looking forward to having some great discussions with municipal staff and leaders from across the province. Drop by and speak with us at booth #44!

As a trusted provider of secure and transparent online voting solutions, Simply Voting is dedicated to empowering municipalities with the tools they need to run efficient, inclusive, and reliable elections. The AMCTO conference provides the perfect platform to showcase how our technology can streamline voting processes, enhance accessibility, and build public confidence in electoral outcomes. Let’s work together to shape the future of voting!

In 2022, Simply Voting proudly helped 50 municipalities deliver successful elections driven by internet voting, and we can’t wait to help deliver many more come 2026!

At Simply Voting, we understand that companies can and should do more to have a positive impact on the world around them and the communities in which they exist. In addition to annual donations to charitable organizations voted upon by our staff, we seek to directly impact our local community in Montreal with volunteering efforts as well.

This year we partnered with Tree Canada, a national non-profit organization dedicated to planting and nurturing trees in rural and urban environments. Our mission: help beautify and “green” a local elementary schoolyard with ten trees to ensure young students could benefit from shade coverage.

So on a comfortably warm Friday our staff took time out of their workday, and with tools in hand and water bottles at the ready, we did just that! We worked in teams, taking on specific roles to make our work efficient. Along the way, our staff learned about several nuances around planting and caring for trees, and overall we embraced and matched the passion from our partners.

While we were tired and sore after hours of planting, and in between desperate dreams of ice cream, we could see how the literal sweat and effort would make a lasting addition to the schoolyard for generations of students. Our staff live nearby so we will see firsthand how the trees grow and take root.

We would like to thank Tree Canada for being an excellent partner and helping assist Simply Voting to make a positive impact in our community, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Tree Canada in the future.
