Hockey Canada says it contacted the Halifax Regional Police upon learning ‘disturbing details’ of an alleged assault dating back nearly two decades to the world junior hockey championship
Hockey Canada said staff heard a rumour two weeks ago about “something bad at the 2003 world juniors.” The organization hired a third-party investigator to look into the matter, the statement said, but the investigator was unable to immediately learn anything.reporter Rick Westhead informed Hockey Canada that he had spoken with multiple people who provided “explicit descriptions” of an alleged sexual assault.
TSN reported Friday that, according to its sources, video footage showed roughly a half-dozen players taking turns having sex with a woman who was non-responsive and lying face up on a pool table. TSN did not view any such footage, but cited three sources who described it. The Globe has not independently verified the existence of, or details related to, the video footage in question.
