Canada has joined the countries refusing to play against Russia’s hockey teams amid the war in Ukraine. Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that Russian athletes will not be able to participate in the World Junior Championship, scheduled to begin on December 26 in Alberta.

The decision comes after the Court of Arbitration for Sport lifted the ban imposed by the International Ice Hockey Federation on Russia’s and Belarus’s teams. Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Latvia, and Czechia have also announced that they will not play against Russia. Ukraine thanked them for their support, while tournament organizers must decide whether to host the competitions under these conditions.

Context: deciziile TAS și relaxarea regulilor în sportul internațional au reaprins controversele privind participarea rușilor

Anterior, Tribunalul de Arbitraj Sportiv a anulat excluderea Rusiei din competițiile de hochei pe gheață pentru sezonul 2026-2027, motivând că Federația Internațională de Hochei pe Gheață nu a prezentat dovezi suficiente privind riscurile de securitate. Hotărârea a stârnit reacții și în interiorul organizațiilor sportive, iar Federația a transmis că își exprimă dezamăgirea, chiar dacă a declarat că o va respecta. În paralel, în nordul Europei au existat solicitări locale de excludere: primărița Oslo, Anne Lindboe, a cerut interzicerea sportivilor ruși la probele de iarnă de la Holmenkollen, după ce Federația Internațională de Schi a permis participarea sub drapel neutru.
