Hockey Canada's equity fund paid $7.6M to 9 complainants. Of the $7.6M, $6.8M was paid to Graham James' victims. I don't think we know how many complainants were paid out. We know publicly that Kennedy, Fleury and Holt, were victims and probably all three filed lawsuits, but even that would be unconfirmed. We also don't know if there was any non-public victims who became complainants.
But if we assume Graham James had 3 complainants, then the last 6 complainants (of which EM is one) would be splitting the last $0.8M in some capacity. An average of roughly $133,000.
Yes, she filed a 3.5M lawsuit but years later they reached an undisclosed settlement with an absolute upper limit of 0.8M and absolute minimum limit of a dollar.

Just...the fact that they had an 'Abuse Slush Fund' at all is absolutely staggering.
I cant even imagine being the Accountant setting that up.
