National Newswatch: Canada's most comprehensive site for political news and views. Make it a daily habit.
OTTAWA — More Hockey Canada officials are appearing before a parliamentary committee this week as fallout continues over allegations that players from two World Junior Championship teams committed group sexual assaults in 2003 and 2018.
Scott Smith, Hockey Canada's president and COO, and recently retired CEO Tom Renney were grilled by parliamentarians during a committee meeting last month. Both are expected to be back on Wednesday. Hockey Canada has responded to the allegations by saying it's created a plan to combat the toxic culture.
During a June committee hearing, Hockey Canada officials said they had no knowledge of what happened the night of the alleged assault and did not know the identities of the players involved.
