This was sent to me a while ago and I was asked if I could share it with the sports community. The letter is well written and takes several turns. Have a read and make your own conclusions?
Hello:
I am not sure if you are from BC or from ON. But I have read you blog and I almost fell off my chair. Couldnt believe you were writing this stuff.
But then I started looking around to see what your name was and I couldnt find it anywhere. Then it made sense.
I am not disagreeing with you on anything. But all I am saying is if you were to dig a little deeper on the individuals that you were defending u would see that they are far from angels as well. I could tell you a thing or two.
The reply is as follows:
Thank you for your comments.
It is not about digging deep for info on everyone involved in the sport, just the ones that are creating a tremendous injustice and abuse of their positions and refuse to resign.
The activities of the CBHA Trio are immoral, contrary to accepted standards for governance of non-profit organizations, especially in sport involving youth, lacking entirely of any integrity and are a huge disgrace to the sport.
Have you noticed how quick they act to take down any negative news/blogs/posts from lmbhf for wcmbh?
They are purposefully hiding information from members in order to manage their survival.
I am not interested in defending anyone. I just support the movement to remove the cancer that exists at the CBHA and any organization that supports the way they operate, including Board members of BCBHA and WCMBH that have not been disclosing 100% of the truth for fear that they will be removed.
The faster the better, I say.
The facts and allegations presented are from reliable sources. The CBHA has never publicly issued complete and open disclosure investigating the many allegations against the CBHA Trio.
No public audit has been performed nor an impartial review by peers or an outside agency. Does that not answer whether or not what has been presented in The Sentinel blogs has significant merit.
The cracks were exposed several months ago, yet nothing has been done. Nothing!
As far as my anonymity is concerned, have you seen the stuff they have been doing to anyone and everyone that opposes them: suspensions, fines, termination of membership, threats, shutting down blogging rights, etc.
This forum may be one of the very few we have left to spread the word about what is going on. I encourage all to keep the pressure on all provinces to fix the way our sport is being run.
Trust me, I would much rather be writing about all the great things that do go on in ball hockey, especially at the kids level. I have been a volunteer for 10 years now with kids ball hockey.
It should be all about them and if we do care as volunteers then we need to all step up to protect them from the abuse. As an adult player, I can choose to walk away from playing.
Is that what we want kids to do, walk away from ball hockey?
