Global Athlete and Gymnasts for Change Canada commend the bipartisan work of the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage for their diligent action and impassioned inquiry over the past few days.

Another Canadian Child Gymnast has been sexually assaulted and Canadian Government continues to Ignore Athletes’ Calls for an Independent Third-Party investigation into the Abuse in Canadian Gymnastics.

I will no longer be silenced. Breaking the silence of my lived experiences of abuse in Canadian gymnastics is a heavy one. For the benefit of every child, athlete, and parent in the sport it’s time for me to be vulnerable; it’s time to inform everyone that the type of behaviour I and many others were exposed to was never acceptable and must be stopped.

Global Athlete is an international athlete-led movement whose aim is to inspire and lead positive change in world sport, and collectively address the current imbalance of power between athletes and sporting leaders. Our work helps athletes gain a more represented voice in world sport.

We stand steadfastly united in our calls for a truly independent, third-party investigation into the toxic culture and abuse practices within Canadian Gymnastics. Furthermore, all Canadian athletes must be afforded the exact remedy we are demanding. Athletes can no longer have their rights suppressed.
