Thank you for the question. I appreciate the chance to clarify this issue.
The trust arises from contributions made by Hockey Canada's members: BC Hockey, Hockey Alberta and Hockey Saskatchewan. All of the members contributed to the trust. Hockey Canada is a trustee of the trust. The trust belongs to the original contributors of that trust for that self-insured period I mentioned, from 1986 to 1995. Over the years, this trust has provided annual funding to the members and the CHL by way of realized annual investment income. That income is then distributed to the members in the CHL, not Hockey Canada.
This money is not Hockey Canada's; it's not Hockey Canada's asset.
