Dr. Ann Pegoraro, the Lang Chair in Sport Management in the Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics, appeared on the July 14 edition of Global National to discuss the timing of Hockey Canada’s open letter. 

Pegoraro said the withdrawal of funding for the World Juniors tournament had a huge role in Hockey Canada’s decision to release the letter, which details the organization’s planned next steps for addressing sexual harassment.  

She recently spoke with Global News, CBC London, TSN 690 Drive Radio Montreal, and the Bill Kelly Radio Show on 900 CHML about the allegations as well.  

The director of the International Institute for Sport Business and Leadership, Pegoraro researches gender equity, sport consumers, marketing and communication and is also the co-director of the National Network for Research on Gender Equity in Canadian Sport.
