From rwesthead: Four women’s national soccer team players to testify in Ottawa
Mar 02, 2023 at 11:19 AM ET
The players will discuss their ongoing labour dispute with Canada Soccer, which attracted public attention last month after the team said it was going on strike less than a week before they were scheduled to play in the SheBelieves Cup over pay equity issues and budget cuts. National team players still have not been paid for 2022 and have a number of issues about their working conditions. They say that Canada Soccer has not scheduled a game in Canada for them before the Women’s World Cup in July and August in Australia and New Zealand, and that the cuts to their budget are so bad that there isn’t enough money to properly prepare for games in the latter part of the year.
