Hockey Canada has been embroiled in scandal and scrutiny for months over its history of grossly mishandling sexual assault allegations.
Since 1989, the sports organization has paid out $8.9 million to quietly settle sexual assault cases involving junior hockey players out of a slush fund comprised of registration fees paid by parents. It’s not an isolated incident. It isn’t one bad apple. Canada’s sports minister says there is a “systemic problem” of sexual violence and toxic masculinity in Canada’s hockey culture.
Join us at this online panel moderated by Tamara Taggart where we will address the Hockey Canada scandal as a jumping off point to interrogate the damaging culture at the heart of hockey in Canada.
