We’re deeply disappointed by the Golden Knights’ decision to sign Hart. An acquittal is not exoneration & "regret" is not accountability. This choice sends a clear message: protecting reputations matters more than supporting survivors.
Survivors deserve better. The sport deserves better.

Ontario Says NO MORE is appalled by the Ministry’s decision not to appeal the acquittals of 5 former members of Canada’s 2018 World Junior Hockey Team. This failure to act harms survivors & reinforces victim-blaming. We stand with E.M. & all survivors of sexual violence.

The NHL’s response to sexual assault, domestic violence and child abuse cases isn’t cutting it. We need consistent accountability across the league.
It’s time for a comprehensive policy on abuse in hockey.
