"As a leader in our sport, we will dive deeper and continue to hold Hockey Canada accountable," she said in a July statement.
"We are also committed to driving and leading positive culture change in the game and at Hockey Canada because we want to ensure hockey is accessible, inclusive, safe and welcoming for children and families."
