On the issue of governance, first, there is the matter of athlete representation in governance and, secondly, there is the notion of accountability.
To highlight this, Sport Canada previously mandated NSOs to have independent harassment officers to deal with cases concerning safe sport. They required this in order to obtain their annual funding. Only one of the NSOs had an independent harassment officer 20 years later; yet every year their funding continued, so the question of accountability also comes into play in terms of the answer to your question.
