Good morning. A review found that members of the 2018 World Junior hockey team violated Hockey Canada’s code of conduct. More on that below, along with optimism on a bionic exoskeleton and a baby hippo.

A panel of former judges has found that five members of the 2018 World Junior hockey team violated Hockey Canada’s code of conduct and has recommended extending suspensions for four of them, while immediately reinstating one player.

The context: The violation is in connection with an alleged 2018 sexual assault. The players – Michael McLeod, Carter Hart, Dillon Dubé, Alex Formenton and Cal Foote – were found not guilty by a judge in London, Ont., last year after being charged criminally in relation to the incident. The players were under indefinite suspension from Hockey Canada pending the results of the independent review.

What it means: Hockey Canada does not have say over any National Hockey League activities. Some of the players are now resuming NHL careers. The suspensions bar the four players from a wide range of activities that are overseen by the sport’s national governing body, including coaching, volunteering and representing the country at international tournaments, such as the world championships, Olympics and Spengler Cup, were they to be considered for those rosters.

Newly released court documents show that police received a flurry of calls as the Tumbler Ridge school shooting, which left six people dead, unfolded, including a report that the suspect had killed her mother and half-brother and crashed into a snowbank as she drove erratically away from the family home.

The details so far: The documents are redacted, including whole pages and paragraphs, witness statements and what appear to be times and dates. They also show that RCMP quickly identified the possible suspect as a member of a family infatuated with firearms.

According to three sources on both sides of the border, Canadian officials are weighing a proposal that would see Ottawa accept U.S. auto tariffs in exchange for a reduction on levies for vehicles compliant with USMCA. The proposal would also maintain an exemption for the value of American content in cars exported from Canada.

The context: Not only is the auto industry central to the bilateral trade relationship, but it is politically crucial: The United States wants Canadian premiers to stop their bans on American alcohol sales as part of the deal. That would require the agreement of Ontario, which contains most of the country’s auto industry.

Jamie McAnsh’s ambition to scale mountains wasn’t diminished after a painful disability left him partly paralyzed from the waist down. With the help of a custom leg brace, he was able to relearn how to walk, but he wanted more. He turned to a B.C.-based company for help and with a new exoskeleton-like device, he has since conquered Vancouver’s Grouse Grind.

The company: Bionic Power collaborated with French health company Thuasne to create the SpryStep Agilik KAFO – a medical device offering help with everyday mobility for patients with weakness in their legs. The Agilik collects data about his gait and movements, displayed in an app. Today, the companies are working on a device for McAnsh, who is preparing to climb Mount Everest in 2028.
