As Hockey Canada remains embroiled in a sexual assault scandal, Canadian Supreme Court justice Thomas Cromwell says an independent probe revealed that the federation is at a crossroads to make necessary changes.
Hockey Canada then announced members of the 2003 men’s world junior roster were being investigated for a group sexual assault. None of the allegations from 2003 or 2018 have been proven in court.
“The complexity of the organization’s leadership challenges have outgrown the responsive capacity of the present board recruitment and election processes,” Cromwell wrote. “The current board nomination process has not provided Hockey Canada with the wide range, depth and diversity of experience, both professional and personal, that the board collectively requires to govern this complex organization and to lead significant cultural change.
Cromwell, who interviewed more than 80 people in over 60 meetings for the report, said Hockey Canada was right to establish reserve funds — including the National Equity Fund . But said there wasn't appropriate oversight or transparency over the fund. Cromwell also painted a murky picture of how organizations, associations, leagues, teams and participants with different resources and different regions operate.
