Rowing Canada has signed an agreement to join Abuse-Free Sport, three weeks after an independent report revealed a toxic environment in the sport.
The national federation will be able to access the new Office of the Sport Integrity Commissioner following a transition period that will end no later than Dec. 13.
Canada’s women’s eight crew rowed to gold at the Tokyo Olympics, continuing the tradition of excellence in Canadian rowing. But athletes complained about a toxic environment beneath the surface, prompting a third-party investigation by Rubin Thomlinson LLP. In an Instagram post, McBean quoted the report’s findings: Over 50 per cent of people surveyed describe their experience with RCA’s high-performance environment as negative; over 85 per cent of people surveyed witness, experienced or heard maltreatment; and over 25 per cent of those surveyed wouldn’t report maltreatment.
A member of Canada’s Olympic team told The Canadian Press she was recovering from an eating disorder caused by her unhealthy relationship with former national women’s coach Dave Thompson, who was fired in February 2020, five months ahead of the original start date of the Tokyo Olympics. The dismissal came after a 2019 complaint filed against him under Rowing Canada’s Prevention of Abuse, Harassment and Bullying Policy.
