Racism is a form of harm that is experienced by boys and girls and men and women of colour. It can be a terrible barrier to participation along with class and opportunity barriers.
In the community that I know well, Scarborough, where you continue to serve, it's a huge barrier. I think by broadening the definition of what we don't want to see in sport through the UCCMS, we explicitly label racism as one of the harms that should be eradicated.
