Annual Session
UMP usually meets in Victoria, British Columbia during the first weekend of January, when the actual Legislature is not in session. During this session, the parties participating are based on the real federal political parties, with the exception of the Bloc Québécois, which does not have a presence outside of Quebec.

Famous quotes containing the words annual and/or session:
“I would not have every man nor every part of a man cultivated, any more than I would have every acre of earth cultivated: part will be tillage, but the greater part will be meadow and forest, not only serving an immediate use, but preparing a mould against a distant future, by the annual decay of the vegetation which it supports.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The bar is the male kingdom. For centuries it was the bastion of male privilege, the gathering place for men away from their women, a place where men could go to freely indulge in The Bull Session ... the release of the guilty anxiety of the oppressor class.”
—Shulamith Firestone (b. 1945)
