Hockey Canada will still ice a team in next month's rescheduled 2022 World Juniors tournament in Edmonton, CEO Scott Smith told reporters after hearings in Ottawa. RealPDGrant has more.
Amid the fallout from how Hockey Canada has handled sexual assault allegations, Team Canada will still appear in the upcoming World Juniors tournament in Edmonton, Hockey Canada president Scott Smith said during a pause in Wednesday’s parliamentary hearings.
The team continuing to participate comes in the immediate wake of new allegations on Friday of sexual assault by former national team players at the 2003 tournament in Halifax. Halifax police quickly announced they are opening an investigation into the alleged incident. The 2022 tournament, already absent Russia because of an IIHF ban prompted by that country's invasion of Ukraine, will go ahead as planned at Rogers Place. Canada was in Group A with Czechia, Finland, Latvia and Slovakia.
