Episode description

The governing body for hockey in Canada is facing a lot of scrutiny for how it handled the investigation into, and settling of, an alleged sexual assault involving some members of the 2018 world junior team. Sponsors have pulled funding, and executives have appeared before members of parliament to answer questions, but many are wondering what it will take to make systemic change to the organization that governs the game from the grassroots to the elite level. Postmedia national sports writer Scott Stinson joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss how these allegations, and others, came to light, what Hockey Canada has pledged to do going forward, and how that may not be enough.
