Why do Hockey Canada and the Member Partners collect demographic information?

The collection of self-identification data is central to equity, diversity, and inclusion efforts. Hockey Canada and the Member Branches are collecting this data to increase our ability to enhance programs, while recognizing and removing barriers. The demographic data being collected through the HCR platform is consistent with how the Government of Canada solicits this information including the options you see of race/ethnicity, language and Indigenous Peoples (all of which provide “Prefer not to say” as an option). There are many factors as to why and how this data is collected: please refer to this Government of Canada website for more information: click here

 

Documentation is required for a new participant. To add these documents, click on Add. Documents can also be added from the members tab in My Account.

 

I don’t know

For this option, you will enter the First/Last name and Date of birth. The system will search for existing members, and for participants that you may have started to create, but have not completed. This participant will not have a Member ID. Once the registration is complete, a Member ID will be assigned to them.
