Scott Smith, who came under fire for how Hockey Canada has handled allegations of sexual assaults by two Canadian world junior teams, stepped down Tuesday as CEO. All Hockey Canada board members have also agreed to step down “to make room for a new slate of directors.”
The announcement comes three days after interim Hockey Canada Chair of the Board Andrea Skinner tendered her resignation.
While appearing at two Parliamentary hearings called to investigate Hockey Canada’s response to allegations of group sexual assaults by the 2003 and 2018 teams, Smith resisted calls by MPs from all four parties for his resignation.
