Hockey Canada has regained its national funding from Ottawa cdnpoli
Hockey Canada saw its funding shut off by the federal government, while a number of sponsors have pulled dollars since May, when it was revealed a woman alleged she was sexually assaulted by eight players — including members of the 2018 world junior team — following a foundation gala in London, Ont. in June 2018.The organization then announced members of the 2003 men’s world junior roster — the last time Halifax hosted — were also being investigated for a group sexual assault.
In order to have its funding reinstated, Hockey Canada needed to meet three conditions outlined by St-Onge, which included:— Review and implement the recommendations from an independent governance review led by retired Justice Thomas Cromwell;“Today marks an important milestone for Hockey Canada in our journey to earn and maintain the trust of Canadians,” Hockey Canada chair Hugh L. Fraser said in a statement.
This was followed hours later by Hockey Canada saying that players from the 2018 world junior team will not be considered for international competition until the investigation is complete. Cromwell recommended the new board serve only a one-year term focused on improving the organization’s governance and safety across the sport.
