There were no objections from the members of the Board of Directors to this agreement. The resolution was adopted by all members of the Board of Directors. As to what may have been said thereafter, obviously, that is up to each Board member.
At the time, I was present and participated in all of the Board meetings. Obviously, this deal was supported by the Board for a very good reason: it allowed our organization to earn $3 million a year in revenue and avoid $1 million a year in expenses for broadcasting our games. We needed the money. We concluded that receiving this amount would secure our activities for the long term, benefiting all our athletes and the sport we promote in Canada.
