The Nova Scotia government says it will require every person representing Hockey Canada at the upcoming 2023 World Junior Championship to take 'sexual assault and harassment prevention' training.
Taylor said the government "remains concerned about the issues facing Hockey Canada," but he didn't say whether the province is still considering cutting ties.
The organization has also developed an "event security plan" for the 2023 World Junior tournament. Hockey Canada says this includes "enhanced team rules and increased supervision of players, coaches and staff, with a zero tolerance policy for acts of harassment, discrimination, racism and sexual violence."The City of Moncton will spend $750,000 to host the event. Its city council approved the details of the agreement with Hockey Canada on Monday.
"I think that set things up properly. They certainly are making a lot of movement toward being a more open and inclusive organization. But we need to remember that this is an international hockey tournament, and if you've been downtown Moncton, you've seen the signs. We're up and we're ready to welcome the world to our community."
When CBC asked why she told councillors not to comment on an issue of public interest, LeBlanc said the four host provinces had decided the provincial governments would be "the lead organizations for all media requests." It appears those plans originally included both premiers. But by July, the premiers were no longer planning to go.
