The Liberal government has restored Hockey Canada’s federal funding, which was pulled just under a year ago after allegations of sexual assault by players emerged, along with news that the organization quietly spent millions to settle other sexual assault claims.
The move by Minister of Sport Pascale St-Onge on April 16 came just hours before Canada’s national women’s hockey team took on the United States in the gold-medal game of the International Ice Hockey Federation’s Women’s World Championship.
