Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport – (Ottawa, Ontario – January 2, 2019) – Russia must be held to account for missing the December 31, 2018 deadline to provide the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) access to critical information (electronic data and samples) associated with the now widely known, state-sponsored doping scandal. In a joint statement by national anti-doping organizations from Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Singapore, Sweden, and USA, the call was issued for immediate action.
“It is now time for WADA to get on with its role as the global regulator – to enforce Code compliance with Russia and abandon its unsuccessful diplomatic approach,” said Paul Melia, President and CEO of the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES).
