Hockey Canada announced hours earlier that Scott Smith is out as president and CEO, while the board of directors resigned. Hockey Canada said the outgoing board recognized "the urgent need for new leadership and new perspectives" in stepping down. Hockey Canada subsequently had federal funding cut off, while a number of corporations paused sponsorship dollars. "There's work to do to transform the culture at Hockey Canada," Trudeau said.
