The Canadian Women’s Olympic Soccer Team is embroiled in a scandal after staff members were found to have used drones to spy on opponents, resulting in the suspension of head coach Bev Priestman and a six-point deduction in Olympic standings. FIFA has suspended Priestman and her assistants for one year, while the Canadian government has cut funding for them. Priestman expressed deep regret for the impact on players, who maintain that they are not involved in unethical behavior and are determined to prove their worth on the field. Canada Soccer CEO Kevin Blue acknowledged a potential history of unethical drone use, including by the men's team, suggesting a systemic issue within the organization. The Canadian Olympic Committee is exploring an appeal against the points deduction, arguing it is unfair to the players who were not complicit in the scandal. Despite the turmoil, the team secured a victory against France during the Olympics.
