A parliamentary committee will not question the coaches of the national women香蕉视频直播檚 soccer team about the Paris Olympics cheating scandal, after Liberal and Bloc Qu茅b茅cois MPs voted against launching a study on Monday.

The team was penalized during the Olympics this summer for cheating by taking drone footage of an opponent香蕉视频直播檚 practice.

NDP MP Niki Ashton put forward a motion at the House of Commons heritage committee to study what role officials from the team and Canada Soccer played in the scandal.

Ashton wanted to hear from suspended head coach Bev Priestman, former head coach John Herdman, analyst Joseph Lombardi, assistant coach Jasmine Mander and Canada Soccer香蕉视频直播檚 CEO.

Ashton said the scandal damaged Canada香蕉视频直播檚 reputation and there are still questions that need to be answered.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 important for parliamentarians, on behalf of Canadians, to seek some accountability and ensure that we are truly supporting our athletes, especially as we gear up for co-hosting the World Cup in 2026,香蕉视频直播� she told the committee.

Six MPs from the Bloc and the Liberals voted down the motion, while five MPs from the Conservatives and the NDP voted in favour.

Ashton said in an interview she was very disappointed that the study won香蕉视频直播檛 happen.

香蕉视频直播淭his is a Liberal-Bloc coverup,香蕉视频直播� she said. 香蕉视频直播淐anadians have a lot of questions about what is happening, how deep this mess goes and what it will take to fix it.香蕉视频直播�

Ashton said there should not be any lingering questions about Canada香蕉视频直播檚 ethics ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

Sport Minister Carla Qualtrough, who is not on the committee, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Martin Champoux, the Bloc committee vice-chair who voted against the motion, said an emailed statement that there is an independent external review into the scandal.

Canada Soccer announced plans for the review on July 24, and said its outcome will be shared publicly.

香蕉视频直播淲e believe it香蕉视频直播檚 more appropriate to wait for the results of that review before dedicating a committee study to the subject,香蕉视频直播� Champoux said in French.

Lombardi was arrested in Paris after authorities captured a drone that was spotted flying over New Zealand香蕉视频直播檚 women香蕉视频直播檚 soccer team as they practised three days before they were set to face Canada in the Olympics.

The Canadian team was docked six points in the Olympics group stage by FIFA. Canada Soccer was fined about $313,000, and Priestman, Lombardi and Mander were each suspended for a year.
