  • Foundations of Excellence
    Foundations of Excellence Annual Report 2004-2005 Message to Stakeholders It is our firm belief that the true value of sport to Canadian society will only be realized if our sport system is anchored on a strong ethical foundation. We know Canadians invest in sport because they believe sport can and should contribute to our society. Canadians want their sport system, from the backyard rinks to the world stage, to build character and ethical behaviours through the promotion and reflection of a core set of Canadian values. Sport built on these values can and will enrich the lives of those who participate. But just as importantly, sport can build better communities and a stronger, more united country. Sport tainted by unethical behaviour, such as doping or violence, will have a negative impact on those who participate and on their communities, and ultimately lead to a loss of public confidence and support. The Canadian Sport Policy process and the subsequent National Strategy for Ethical Conduct in Sport (the True Sport Strategy) have defined the key sport values as fairness, inclusion, excellence and fun. These values relate to how we prepare our athletes, and they relate to our decisions and approaches to the pursuit of excellence in sport. How we as Canadians pay attention to ethics in sport is therefore very much at the heart of the CCES mandate. It is in fact our core business. The past year has seen the CCES help put in place important ethical foundations that we believe will both protect the integrity of Canadian sport values and also ensure that our sport system delivers tremendous value to individuals, communities and to our collective identity as Canadians.
