Mayor Mike Savage says the World Junior Hockey Championship will go ahead as planned for Halifax and Moncton. That announcement came a day after the CEO and Board of Directors resigned from Hockey Canada, the group overseeing the sport in this country. The resignations are in response to a host of sponsors pulling their financial support after scandals broke involving sexual assaults, financial settlements and non-disclosure agreements. Moshe Lander is an Economics Professor who teaches at Concordia University and Dalhousie. He also hosts a podcast that looks at the intersection of sport and economics. And he shares his thoughts.
