Hockey Canada announces CEO, entire board of directors will step aside

Hockey Canada has announced its entire board of directors and its CEO will step aside as the organization confronts widespread criticism over how it handled an alleged group sexual assault involving members of the 2018 men's national junior team.

In a media statement, the sports organization confirms that, effective immediately, chief executive officer Scott Smith is leaving.

The statement says that an interim management committee will be put in place until a newly constituted board appoints a new CEO to lead the organization.
