Tim Hortons suspends World Junior support over sexual assault allegations

Tim Hortons is suspending its support of the IIHF World Junior Championship and plans to re-evaluate its sponsorship of Hockey Canada, over the organization’s response to allegations that eight Canadian Hockey League players sexually assaulted a young woman in 2018 after a Hockey Canada gala.

“Hockey Canada has communicated that it is committed to changing the culture of hockey to make it safer and more inclusive for all, on and off the ice. We have expressed strongly that we believe Canadians are urgently seeking concrete details from Hockey Canada about how it intends to do so,” Tim Hortons spokesperson Michael Oliveira wrote in a statement Wednesday. “We will re-evaluate our sponsorship agreement once we have all the information we need to consider our options.

“This matter is deeply concerning, and we have communicated our expectations to Hockey Canada that concrete steps must be taken to address safety issues and ensure swift culture change,” Keri Scobie, a public and government affairs manager at Imperial, wrote in a statement.Opinion: The important moral question Hockey Canada sponsors now face

Mr. Oliveira did not respond to a question about whether Tim Hortons intends to redirect the funds that would have been used in marketing around the World Juniors to any other causes.

Yes…Tim Hortons, who allows their franchisees to cut employee benefits and paid breaks, when the Govt. increases minimum wage. A rich history of treating their employees like garbage and anti-union animus. Glad they could take a stand on something…I guess.
