After a prolonged period of uncertainty, Hockey Canada officially announces the conclusion of its investigation. However, the critical findings remain undisclosed due to the ongoing appeal process, prolonging the public's wait.
In November 2022, an independent adjudicative panel was provided with Henein Hutchison Robitaille LLP's final investigative report regarding allegations against the 2018 National Junior Team in June 2018. The panel was tasked with holding a hearing with a view to determining whether certain members of the 2018 National Junior Team breached Hockey Canada's code of conduct, and if so, what sanctions should be imposed against those players.
That hearing is complete and the panel has provided its final adjudicative report to all involved parties.
Shortly thereafter, a notice of appeal was filed, as is permitted under Hockey Canada's Investigation and Adjudication Procedures. As the appeal process, which we anticipate will begin in the near future, will be conducted in-camera, we are not able to share details of the report, including its findings at this time to ensure that we do not interfere with the integrity of the appeal process.

As the appeal process is set to commence privately, the report's details, including its findings, remain confidential to maintain the appeal's integrity.
Hockey Canada's official statement sheds light on the investigation's status, propelling the situation closer to resolution. Despite the ongoing appeal process, intricate details stay concealed, heightening anticipation within the hockey community for unfolding developments in this ongoing narrative.
