Hockey Canada to testify on sexual assault


Canadian Heritage's standing committee agreed Monday to ask Hockey Canada officials to testify about an out-of-court settlement of a sexual assault lawsuit, according to TSN's Rick Westhead.

The lawsuit, which was filed in April and settled in May, involved some members of Canada's 2018 world junior team.

CEO Scott Smith, former CEO Tom Renney, former senior VP of insurance and risk management Glen McCurdie, and foundation chair David Andrews are among those being asked to testify in Ottawa on June 20, per Westhead.
