Bev Priestman will not return as head coach of the Canadian women's soccer team following an independent report into the use of drones to spy on an opponent at this year's Paris Olympics.

Canada Soccer's CEO Kevin Blue stated the incident was tied to a broader issue of culture within the organization, indicating deep-rooted problems needing serious attention.

Kevin Blue noted, 'Our initial review of the independent investigation reveals that the drone incident in Paris was a symptom of a past pattern of unacceptable culture and insufficient oversight within the national teams.' This reflects deeply on Canada Soccer's internal environment, indicating the need for immediate and effective reforms to ensure the integrity of the sport is upheld in the future.
