Timeline For Investigation Resolution Announced
Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly was interviewed recently by Michael Russo of The Athletic. He commented on the rumors going around about the 2018 Canadian World Junior Team.
"... The investigation needs to take the time it needs to take. We want to do a thorough job and have all the possible information. It's the right thing to do under the circumstances. I believe we should expect to unveil the investigation report very soon."
"Then, as for the aftermath, we are currently in the unknown. At the risk of sounding redundant, it's coming very soon." - Bill Daly
