Hockey Québec cuts ties with Hockey Canada in wake of new allegations against national body
CBC
Quebec's provincial hockey federation is cutting ties with Hockey Canada in the wake of new allegations against the sporting body.
In a resolution voted on Tuesday night, Hockey Québec (HQ) states that it no longer has "confidence in the ability of Hockey Canada to act effectively to change the culture of hockey with the structure in place."
The provincial federation said it will be suspending all transfers of registration fees usually paid to the national organization.
The vote comes after calls from Federal Sports Minister Pascale St-Onge on Tuesday to see regional federations under Hockey Canada put pressure on the organization to change.
More to come.
P.E.I.'s Public Schools Branch is looking for 50 substitute bus drivers, and it'll be recruiting at three job fairs on Saturday, June 8. The job fairs are located at the Atlantic Superstore in Montague, Royalty Crossing in Charlottetown, and the bus parking lot of Three Oaks Senior High in Summerside. All three run from 9 a.m. until noon. Dave Gillis, the director of transportation and risk management for the Public Schools Branch, said the number of substitute drivers they're hiring isn't unusual. "We are always looking for more. Our drivers tend to have an older demographic," he said.
