If you spy on your opponent by flying a drone into their practice, you are a cheater. Cheaters should be disqualified from competition. Any Olympic medal arising having been caught being a cheat would forever hold an asterisk should the governing body deem that the act could be rationalized in a way to impose only a penalty instead of a disqualification. This is the situation currently with the Canadian women’s soccer team at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Yes….there would be honest committed women soccer players hurt because of an unethical coach. These young women would come to learn that life isn’t always fair in that honest committed athletes would come to pay a price for their unethical leader(s). Of course it will be complicated when it shouldn’t be because of the enormity of sacrifice of so many involved. There is also the backdrop of our new age of failing to be resolute and absolute. We’ve become so good at turning a blind eye due to the work involved in producing accountability. Send the Canadian women’s soccer team home. They have cheated. They have also stained Canada’s image on the world stage at a time when we should be rebuilding it.
