This is deserved compensation paid to a victim by her transgressors and which both parties agreed to.
I think it is fair to examine Hockey Canada's role in all of this and should be done but not at the expense of the victim.

Dude...its been 6 years. What do you think happened? Why do you think London PD just...'wrapped it up?'
She was paid for silence.
Sure, maybe some of it was 'compensation' but at the end of the day? It was silence.
