Red Coalition Inc. Wishes to thank Hockey Canada for its response to our letter regarding racism in hockey in this country. However, we noted: “In 2022, Hockey Canada appointed an independent third-party to administer all Hockey Canada-related maltreatment complaints in a procedurally fair manner below national level programming. This was part of our commitment to advancing sport safety through victim-centred approaches. However, in Quebec, all maltreatment complaints in sport are under the jurisdiction of a provincially mandated independent mechanism that was introduced by its government in 2021, which is the entity that led the investigation in question.” Why does Quebec need to have its own “mechanism” to investigate acts of racism in hockey ??? The Red Coalition will therefore seek answers from Hockey Quebec for the ways in which the investigation in the Gatineau matter was conducted.
