That's what the CBC article is about. It literally says so in the headline:
Pro sports charities hoarding cash, overspending on fundraising, watchdog says

The story is about the report.
CBC's job in this case is to do due diligence on the report. Actually contact the Foundations to get their input and remarks, and then put out an article.

Just stating exactly what the report says and not actually digging any deeper than that is not good journalism.

Plus the report was requested (and likely funded) by the CBC News. So trust me they have an angle here.
