Sport Minister Pascale St-Onge is once again calling for change in Hockey Canada's leadership in the wake of new allegations against the troubled sporting body.

The Globe and Mail reported Monday that Hockey Canada put player registration fees toward a second fund “for matters including but not limited to sexual abuse,” according to documents obtained by the newspaper.

TSN reported in May that Hockey Canada had paid an undisclosed settlement to a woman who alleges she was sexually assaulted by eight players, including members of Canada's 2018 world junior team. An investigation is also underway into an alleged sexual assault involving members of the country's 2003 world junior team.

Brind'Amour and Skinner are both set to appear in front of a federal government committee Tuesday about how the sporting body has handled allegations of sexual assault. “But I think that's the only option available to Hockey Canada, to be open and transparent with Canadians. And they have failed that miserably over the last few months.”

Feds renew call for change at Hockey Canada in wake of new allegations against organization | CBC SportsOttawa renews call for change at Hockey Canada in wake of new allegations against organization. Sporting body created second fund for sexual assault claims, according to reports. Its time for the self-serving CEO, Scott Smith to do the honourable thing and resign. Does he really think he can make a difference when he did nothing to stop what transpired since he started Hockey Canada in 1995. ALL the present board needs to be replaced, why? Because the person at the top makes the final decision but, the other board members give that person their input. So the decision is tainted by ALL. Clean house! High priority on the Gov to do list to justify a ministerial position apparently. There are already mechanisms in place to deal with assault and harassment

Stadium tragedy exposes Indonesia's troubled soccer historyGaining the right to host next year's Under-20 World Cup was a major milestone in Indonesia's soccer development, raising hopes that a successful tournament would turn around long-standing problems that have blighted the sport in this country of 277 million people. One home game they lost in 23 years and the riot ..wow so maybe game was either bought corrupted or thrown eh....😏 Who won the game ? They died for nothing. Nobody outside of that country knows or cares about their soccer clubs. I didn't even know they played there.

Grizzlies follow Raptors, PFC in acknowledging reconciliation effortsIt is often said the best thing about sport is its ability to bring communities together. There is nothing like a big win or championship to cut through the mundane of the everyday and lift spirits in a city, region, province or nation. It's all virtue signaling. What are they actually doing other than social media and press releases?
