Set aside Cricket BC election and secured new election

The B.C. Supreme Court set aside the results of Cricket BC’s November 2023 board election and ordered a new election after finding significant voting irregularities. The Court held that Cricket BC improperly accepted delegate and proxy votes that did not comply with its bylaws and that those irregularities were capable of affecting the election result. The Court also found that the sitting president, Vimal Hardat, was not eligible to hold office because he was not a qualifying member of a member cricket organization, and therefore could not preside over the new election
