Canada joins boycott of ice hockey matches against Russia
Original: Canada joins coalition refusing to play ice hockey against Russia over Ukraine war
Canada has joined a coalition of countries refusing to play ice hockey against Russia because of the war in Ukraine. The move aligns Canada, one of hockey's traditional powers, with other nations keeping Russian teams out of international competition. The decision underlines how the conflict continues to isolate Russian sport across major international disciplines, with further sporting bans likely to follow.
Why now: The war in Ukraine continues to prompt Western countries to exclude Russia from international sporting events.
