New: Canadian Tire is permanently ending its relationship with Hockey Canada, in what is the most significant corporate response so far in HC's expanding scandal. CT, one of HC's "international" level corporate partners, told me HC "continues to resist meaningful change..."

Scotiabank, and TELUS, pausing sponsorship for men’s hockey programs for 2022-23 season, including upcoming World Juniors tournament Won't be long now and it will be either dissolved entirely or leadership will be completely cleaned out (BoD, CEO). Companies are voting with their $$$ and that's when you see meaningful change.

I’d be really curious who comes back on board as a sponsor after the dust settles . The Federal government is basically saying the Hockey Canada execs should leave before they burn the organization to the ground. I think this should have been done months ago.

Glad to see Skinner finally resigned from Hockey Canada. Scapegoat Not a scapegoat, just one of many that I believe will be forced one way or the other out. She clearly is cluesless and TSN's summary of her testimony highlights just how out of touch with reality that woman is: "She insisted hockey shouldn't be made a "scapegoat" or "centrepiec" for toxic culture that exists elsewhere in society, and referred to politicians who have been accused of sexual misconduct." She needs to receive a lifetime ban from being involved in any non pro sports organization or governing body. All Hockey Canada executives should be banned for life.

He could make a good analysis of a situation without carving a player too much. Sometimes a player deserves to be carved if they’re being a dick but Ferraro was reasonably respectful. That’s a flaw in a lot of the new guys coming up and some of the old dogs that never played. (Craig Button)

Also the damage is done, rebuilding the new entity from the ground up will take time and regaining credibility and trust will take even longer. I was very happy to see that the entire board is now gone and new people will take over. It will take a long time to overcome the damage done and I still think that it is best served to fold that organization and create a new one.
