Craig Needles Podcast Episode 77: Karen Vecchio on the Hockey Canada lawsuit

When TSN broke a story about a women who settled a lawsuit with Hockey Canada and the CHL - after alleging she was sexually assaulted by eight 2018 World Junior players - there was anger all over the nation, but perhaps not surprise.

The story points to an issue with sport culture in the country, and Karen Vecchio has concerns.

The MP for Elgin-Middlesex-London and the Conservative critic for Status of Women joins the podcast to explain why the federal government needs to be involved in this story and what she would like to see happen on Parliament Hill.
