Prime Minister Trudeau calls for ‘wholesale change’ of hockey in Canada
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a strong statement on Thursday, saying there need to be wholesale changes in the country’s governing hockey body, which could include replacing Hockey Canada altogether.
The comments come after Hockey Canada returned to face scrutiny this week from the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage. On Tuesday, former Hockey Canada board chair Michael Brind’Amour and interim chair Andrea Skinner faced tough questions, including CEO Scott Smith had not been fired over the company’s handling of alleged sexual assaults.
“There’s lots of people who could run it, and unfortunately, the total loss of faith in that organization by everyone means that it’s nonsensical that they’d be digging in their heels on this one.”
