Description

Guest: Bruce Arthur, columnist Developments with Hockey Canada have sparked a national conversation after revelations the organization spent millions in settlements following sexual misconduct claims that go back decades. There has been a push for change as the government amplifies its probe into Hockey Canada’s top leadership and big name sponsors like Tim Hortons, Scotiabank, Telus and Canadian Tire have been falling like dominoes. There are dire questions about the future of the game’s governing body and a larger conversation about sexual violence and misogyny in Canada’s hockey culture. Columnist Bruce Arthur joins “This Matters” to share his opinion. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Paulo Marques and Brian Bradley
