Concerns have been raised for years, but the cases presently in the news appear to have caused considerable introspection at hockey’s highest levels
At the least, there should be leadership changes at the governing body for hockey in this country, and the only surprising part is that they haven’t happened already. With its government funding frozen and corporate sponsors having fled in droves amid serious questions about how it handled allegations of a group sexual assault at a Hockey Canada event four years ago, resignations at the top are inevitable.
Some of the complaints are financial. It has been argued that the Canadian Hockey League, the umbrella organization for the major junior leagues in Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada, benefits from unpaid wages, with athletes spending countless hours training, playing, and travelling while earning just a modest stipend and a promise of tuition payments when their playing career is over.
These kinds of concerns have been raised for years, but the cases that are presently in the news appear to have caused considerable introspection at hockey’s highest levels. Hockey Canada on Monday vowed a new action plan to “address systemic issues in hockey.”
