Hockey Quebec tackles respect and integrity in week-long education initiative

Hockey Quebec is running a week-long, free-of-charge initiative that started Monday, Oct. 24 to educate members of the provincial hockey community about respect and integrity, and changing the culture of the sport, which has been under the microscope for several years now.
The governing body for all ice hockey in the province started to piece together the ‘Restaurer notre hockey’ initiative because, according to Hockey Quebec Executive Director Jocelyn Thibault, it was time the federation addressed topics such as racism, consent, and civility.
“We brainstormed quite a bit and we felt that at the start of the year, because the season is starting, we wanted to put together a week of education for members, players, officials, parents, volunteers, coaches, and every day there will be a different topic,” Thibault said.
