My new book, WE BREED LIONS: Confronting Canada’s Troubled Hockey Culture, is coming this fall.
Hockey in Canada is at a crossroads.
Over the past three years, I have interviewed current and former junior hockey players, as well as parents, player agents, hockey coaches and executives, team owners, legal experts and sociologists about hockey culture in Canada. Their stories are shocking and offer insights into so much about our national game that is broken.
Yet there are reasons to be optimistic. I’ve also spoken to men and women who want to see hockey get to a better place and are working hard to help young players become the best versions of themselves playing the game they love.
Coming in November 2025 via @randomhouseca.

Excited that my new book, The Hinge, will be published by Signal in May 2025.
It’s all about how we can to build an even better Canada in an increasingly dangerous and divided world.

I’ve waited a long time for this day. My book, Son of Elsewhere, is out today. It’s a joy and a privilege to get to share it with you.
You can get it wherever you buy your books, so pop by an indie bookstore. Then, if you’re so inclined, mention it to a friend 💕

Hi! I’m new to the world of books, and I’ve learned preorders are a big deal for first-time authors.
Son of Elsewhere is out May 17. Preordering would help a lot 📚

Saddened by the news of Mike Bossy’s passing. One of the greatest to ever play. One of the most complex, thoughtful to ever play. Few hockey reads I’ve enjoyed more than his letter to his younger self from a few years ago. Rest In Peace.
As a kid, Mike Bossy scored 21 goals in a mite game.

When I wrote my book "Damn Shame," I was hoping that we would start to have conversations exactly like this. Thanks to @CBCNews for giving me the opportunity to discuss body image and ageism, and for tying my book in with other experts on the subject. cbc.ca/radio/sunday/the-sund…
