BREAKING NEWS - Major Reassignment of a Hockey Canada Staff After Embarrassing Comments
After embarrassing comments this past week, Hockey Canadas board chair director has announced her reassignment.
Andrea Skinner released the following statement via social media:
''Upon reflection, it is clear to me from recent events that it no longer makes sense for me to continue to volunteer my time as Interim Chair or as a Director of the organization..''
SHe announced her resignment just three days after embarassing comments. After being asked about the sexual assault aspects to the Hockey Canada investigation during a hearing with the Parlament, Skinner felt it was needed to ignore the sexual assault questions/answers and found it was more important to comment on keeping the arenas open.
Andrea Skinner on prospect of removing Hockey Canada leaders: «I think that will be very impactful in a negative way to our boys and girls who are playing hockey. Will the lights stay on in the rink? I don't know. We can't predict that, and to me that's not a risk worth taking.»
