Quote:

The House of Commons heritage committee has ordered another round of hearings into Hockey Canada's handling of sexual assault claims, with past and present top executives and board chairs summoned to testify.

In a meeting Tuesday, the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage agreed to order Hockey Canada interim board of directors chair Andrea Skinner, former chair Michael Brind'Amour and former president and chief executive officer Bob Nicholson to appear at an Oct. 4 hearing.

This is the first time a member of the board of directors has been called to testify, and will also mark the first appearance by Nicholson. Current Hockey Canada president and CEO Scott Smith and Tom Renney, who preceded Smith and succeeded Nicholson in the roles, have testified in two previous hearings.

The committee held the first round of hearings June 20 after news broke of an alleged sexual assault involving players on Canada's world junior team in 2018 after a Hockey Canada gala in London, Ont., and a hushed settlement between the organization and the complainant.

The federal government froze its funding to Hockey Canada two days later, and several corporate sponsors paused their support.

Maybe if Toby Rieder scored some goals he wouldn’t be in this position.

Fortunately Oilers media have their focus where it matters most right now. On how bad Pulju played last year and how much better he needs to be.

Why is he even still around? Maybe there’s some business or title justifications. But nothing that I don’t see as easily replaceable.

God I hope they dump Barrie or Yamo instead.

Nicholson says two of the funds were created on his watch, and he takes responsibility from an operational stand point.

Don't forget to take your burger apron on your way out, Bob.
