Itโs not just Michael McLeod, Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Dillon Dube, and Callan Foote. Many men in hockey, men in sports, men in general, commit sexual violence against women with impunity.
Hockey Canada has settled 21 sexual assault โallegationsโ since 1989. And these are just the cases that have been brought to and settled by Hockey Canada. Who knows how many rapes/sexual assaults male hockey players have actually committed against women with no recourse or justice for the women.
These brutal attacks illustrate the absolute disregard for womenโs humanity inherent in sexual violence. With cases spanning decades, it has become clear that the existing structures governing menโs hockey in Canada both protected perpetrators from meaningful accountability and failed to curb further sexual violence from occurring.
