Abstract

All across Canada, numerous studies every year are being terminated prematurely or simply stored without recognition. Perceived non-significance and a silent and timid approach are among the factors which contribute to the lack of attention to the author's conclusions and recommendations. Therefore the "Comité d'étude sur la violence au hockey amateur au Québec" (CEVH) decided upon a systematic approach to get the interest of specialists and the general public during the entire duration of the investigation. As such, the recommendations were supported by scientific data as well as by public opinion. This approach (POLITICAL TACTIC) resulted in the implementation of more than 80% of the 78 recommendations in less than 6 months after the presentation of the Report. This very season in Quebec amateur hockey, fundamental changes occured.
