Show Notes
Remember what the Hockey Canada scandal began with? A secret fund to pay settlements to victims of sexual abuse by players on national teams. Some $8.9 million had been paid already and in recent days the news became more concerning.
Guest: Allison Forsyth. Former Olympic skier (2002), Board member at AthletesCAN (Cdn national teams athletes). Partner/COO at ITP Sport. Safe sport consulting and programming agency. She was sexually assaulted by former national ski team coach Bertrand Charest, who was eventually sentenced to 12 years in prison for sexual assaults on numerous skiers, but had his sentence reduced because he was judge "low risk" to reoffend.
