Following several long months of controversy surrounding sexual assault allegations and money used to settle such matters, Hockey Canada has elected a new board of directors.

The organization calls the new board diverse and experienced.

Their names were put forward by an independent nominating committee, Hockey Canada notes.

“We have a lot of work ahead of us and we are determined to enact the changes Canadians expect of Hockey Canada,” said the Honourable Hugh L. Fraser, new chair of the Hockey Canada board of directors. “Hockey means so much to our country and we will be committed to making sure that Hockey Canada is an organization that is transparent and accountable to all Canadians, and is worthy of their trust.”
