I have so many thoughts.
I think what the commission needs to ultimately lead to—if I could have my ultimate wish here—would be culture change. Part of the challenge within sport is that it's not just these egregious instances of abuse that we've all heard about. It's that a lot of very bad behaviour has been normalized in the sport system.
There are a lot of people wearing more than one hat in the system. It's volunteer-driven. It's federal-provincial. These are systemic issues that, until we figure out how to streamline the sports system and address these conflicts of interest, we're not going to have the sport we want for our kids. It's going to be really hard.
I think it's going to be demanded by the public. That's going to be the impetus. I'm hoping the profile of the commission will elevate this and keep it on the radar of the general public, which will and should start demanding better sport.
There's a push and pull here. We have Canadians who have participated in the normalization of this behaviour—the mockery, the intimidation, the bullying, the teasing and the poor language. It just happens. There are parents yelling at officials on the rink and parents yelling at other families' kids who are playing on the soccer field. We don't do this in any other sector. We don't do it in education. I don't walk into my parent-teacher interview and start yelling at the other kids who got the A that my kid should have gotten, but we do it in sport.
I really think the public has to step up and realize that some massive culture change is needed in this system.
