Ford Orders Minister to Ensure Ontario Students Can Watch Canada Hockey Games During School Hours
Canada faces defending champion Finland after a close overtime win over Czechia, with the semifinal broadcast nationally for Canadian viewers at 10:40 a.m. EST.
- On Wednesday evening, Premier Doug Ford directed Education Minister Paul Calandra to ensure Ontario students can watch Team Canada hockey games during school hours, starting with tomorrow's game, and asked schools to make games accessible during instructional time.
- Framing his request as a spirit-building measure, Ford wrote on Wednesday that the move helps Ontario students get in the spirit of the Games and rally behind national teams.
- The women's gold match is slated for Thursday at 1:10 p.m., and Friday's men's semi-final begins at 10:40 a.m., with the bronze medal game on Saturday at 2:40 p.m.
- On Thursday morning, the Ontario Minister of Education confirmed he had moved on Ford's request and told school boards to stream the hockey games during classroom times.
- Given the Milano Cortina Olympics are in a different time zone, tuning into live events can be complex for viewers as the Games run through Feb. 22, with Team Canada advancing to the semis after recent wins.
