The 47th National Convention was held from the 27th of April until the 1st of May in the Toronto Bahá'í Centre. Only 170 delegates were elected to attend because one electoral unit had not been able to elect a delegate. Six delegates participated in the election of the National Spiritual Assembly by mailing in their ballots. The two Counsellors who serve Canada, Mrs. Jacqueline Left Hand Bull-Delahunt and Dr. David Smith both attended as well as ten members of the Auxiliary Board. In addition, two very special guests were in attendance, Mrs. Samiheh Bananí, widow of Hand of the Cause of God Musa Bananí, who attended one session, and Mrs. Audrey Robarts, widow of Hand of the Cause of God John Robarts, who was present throughout the Convention. The National Spiritual Assembly also invited a third special guest, Mrs. Ruth Eyford.

Those who were elected to serve on the National Spiritual Assembly were: Louise Profeit Leblanc; Enayat Rawhani; Susan Lyons; Husyn Banani; Reginald Newkirk; Ed Muttart; Ann Wilson; Judith Filson; and Margot Leonard. [BC Vol 8 No 2 Jun/Jul 1995 p7-11]
