But as the strangely polite sparring of a House of Commons committee unfolded, with MPs upbraiding Smith for the lack of action that Hockey Canada took in 2018, when it didn’t even bothered to discover the identities of the players involved in the alleged assault, and Smith responding with his resolute claims that he was sorry about all that but he’s still the right guy to bring change, there was very little disagreement about the story at the root of this particular scandal.
Anthony Housefather, a Liberal MP, was understandably flummoxed by the way the lawsuit was handled. Had the players, identified in the statement of claim as John Does 1-8, been informed that Hockey Canada intended to settle with their accuser, he asked. Smith said the players were advised after the lawsuit had been settled.
Absolutely he should go. And I find it hard to believe the players had no idea Hockey Canada was settling on their behalf. It was all about protecting the players careers.
