Canadian Olympic Committee To Release Report In Wake Of Marcel Aubut Resignation

The Canadian Press, 13 Jan, 2016 11:39 AM

MONTREAL — The Canadian Olympic Committee will make public today a report on its handling of the Marcel Aubut affair.

Aubut stepped down as president of the COC last year after women accused him of sexual harassment.

He has not faced any criminal charges.

There were media reports that high-ranking people within the COC knew of Aubut's behaviour.

The COC hired an independent lawyer to review its internal policies and made recommendations for improvement.

Former Olympic rower Tricia Smith is the organization's new president.
