CP NewsAlert: Hockey Canada governance review calls for leadership structure changes

By The Canadian Press on November 4, 2022.

Hockey Canada finds itself at “a crossroads” that requires reimagined leadership coupled with more oversight and transparency, a third-party governance review has found.

The 221-page document released today following a review led by former Supreme Court justice Thomas Cromwell comes at a crucial time for the scandal-plagued national sport organization following a disastrous spring, summer and fall.

Hockey Canada has been under intense pressure since May when it was revealed the federation quietly settled a lawsuit after a woman claimed she was sexually assaulted by eight players, including members of the country’s world junior team, following a 2018 gala in London, Ont.

More coming.
