ISCANS

Imperial Sovereign Court of Atlantic Nova Society, Inc.

ISCANS

History

ISCANS was founded by SimonAbbass? AKA NinaDiamonds and co-founded by GaryTurner, JustinTurner AKA ShaydaBlack, LindaPublicover and ShawnLamb AKA ShaneltaRomanovBlake in 1999.

Their plan was a fundraising society, and after several months the Society got off the ground. It has since become one of Halifax's leading fundraising groups raising much-needed funds for all charities, not just gay oriented.

Structure

ISCANS began when SimonAbbass? contacted the Empress of Canada ted northe, the founder of the court system in Canada in 1968. After the first crowning of Halifax's Monarchs by the Empress of Canada ted northe was proud to announce that Canada could brag it had a court system from sea to sea. The Halifax court grew and soon it applied to be part of the International Court System.

Halifax is now part of The International Imperial Court System, which was founded in 1965 in San Francisco by Empress Jose I The widow Norton and now has branches in over 70 cities around the in Canada and the USA. The main event for all Courts is their annual Coronation/Adornment at which The new Heads of State are crowned and funds are dispersed to the yearly charities.

The Heads of State are elected by the community to represent the society for 1 full year plus their dowager year. For an Imperial Court they are Emperor & Empress and for a Barony they are Baron & Baroness. Any member of the Society may apply to run for these positions if they have been members in good standing for at least one year and over age 21. They must go before a panel of their peers and are subjected to a series of questions followed by a vote of the panel. They must receive majority vote to be accepted. If accepted they must actively campaign for 3 weeks followed by which an election is held, including polling station, ballots and official tabulators. The results are only known to the tabulators and are revealed Coronation night.
