ICSN Joins CTV to Discuss Statistics Canada Report on Ongoing Racism in Community Sport

ICSN joined CTV News to speak on new findings from Statistics Canada released in March 2025: “Unfair Treatment, Racism and Discrimination in community sports in Canada.” 

Chair of the Board of Directors of ICSN, Tristian Reid, in a CTV morning interview titled, “Study: Racism Remains an Issue in Community Sports,” addressed the persistent presence of racism and discrimination in community sport and emphasized the urgent need for systemic change. 

He highlighted that addressing these problems requires collective action: “People need to look internally, making sure that we create more inclusive work space cultures within the community. We need to make sure we are holding people accountable.”

We encourage all sport leaders to watch the interview, engage with the data and keep the conversations going—because when lived experience is backed by evidence, it demands CHANGE.
