McBean says offer to join Hockey Canada committee withdrawn after her call to fire top execs. Latest from rwesthead:
Three-time Olympic gold medalist Marnie McBean says a leading crisis-management firm hired by Hockey Canada asked her earlier this month to join a committee that will purportedly hold the organization accountable to the change it has promised.
Hockey Canada released an action plan July 25 the organization promised would “shatter the code of silence and eliminate toxic behaviour in and around Canada’s game.” As part of that , Hockey Canada said it would create a committee to act as a watchdog for the organization. McBean said Vaughan offered her a place on that committee.
Eight days after they first spoke, McBean said that Vaughan told her on Aug. 18 that Hockey Canada chief executive Scott Smith and other top officials have the support of the board and would not be replaced. McBean is an officer of the Order of Canada and was inducted into the Canadian Olympic Hall of Fame in 1994 and Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame in 1997. She also has worked with the Canadian Olympic Committee to help with athlete mentoring.
