Introducing our new season… Hockey
Season 11
•
Love it or hate it, hockey is inescapable in Canada. But the sport has a dark side.
From violence and racism on the ice, to corruption, cover-ups and abuse off of it. In the latest season of COMMONS, host Arshy Mann and producers Jordan Cornish and Noor Azrieh will be bringing you stories from inside the cult of hockey.
Our new season launches on May 24th.
