This list has just been launched. It's likely that they haven't included everyone who is restricted by various sports organizations in Canada. It will take time I would imagine to compile all that information, and enter it into the central registry. It will be informative to see how large the list gets eventually, because at this point it's very short.
Does anyone know more about this?
This whole process is so shrouded in secrecy that it's hard to know what to make of that sort of endorsement, and even if they were aware of Skate Canada's database that doesn't mean that the information was automatically entered into their own database without some sort of review.
I'm not going to condemn her but her conduct at Worlds made me uncomfortable. I would prefer more neutral conduct until the matter is resolved. She didn't reach Sappenfield level with passing out of a visual sign of support but she very clearly gave warm public support. I think she should have avoided being in the KnC at all while the investigation is ongoing.
She hasn't shown any inclination to speak out. All speaking at this point is through her lawyer and I expect that to continue.
He stopped coaching kids but I believe he's still coaching adults.
Is the Jamie McGrigor listed there the 70's pair skater, former Director of Development of Skate Canada British Columbia and the ISU technical specialist (who called Pair event at Junior Worlds last month)?
Yes, it is. And as of a couple of weeks ago he was actively working as an official.
I wasn't saying that she would, just that in theory because she's not Canadian she might have more freedom to speak out.
Wasn't the complainant an adult at the time of the alleged incident?
Yeah, it's pretty terrible. It was a low-level competition, and the friend that saw him there, and briefly chatted with him said he was the same as always. I'm not at all surprised to see him on the list. I expect my dad would have formally complained about him, if there was any kind of a process for such things 20+ years ago. My dad did bring up concerns to the club executive, but he was moving on anyway, nothing was criminal, and I wasn't in any particular danger. My dad's concerns were more ethical, though there were things I heard about second hand that at the time were accepted that now I'd be furious about if it was my kid.
Skate Canada updated their Permanent Expulsions/Interim Suspensions list on April 2 and Myles was moved to the latter category:
The commission's final report (in full) was released this morning:
Commission on the State of U.S. Olympics & Paralympics
www.csusop.org
There were ten areas of focus, with athlete safety being first and foremost
and that section of the report begins on page 9 of the full report.
Quite a bit of information to read through and to summarize.
