A Saskatchewan junior hockey club is apologizing for what it calls a misunderstanding with a transgender girl's family that hosts hockey players in its home. The Melville Millionaires released a statement Wednesday to the Kormos family and to the general public addressing a situation that "appears to have many organizations and communities aggrieved." Kormos told the newspaper the family had been up front about the situation before the player moved in. "Mrs. Kormos and her live-in family members have never been viewed, labelled or deliberately portrayed in a negative way by the hockey club." Joe Wickenhauser, executive director of Moose Jaw Pride and the Saskatchewan Pride Network, said there can be misunderstandings in communities.
