Fishing tournament at resort owned by two former Canucks cancelled after allegations of 'inappropriate behaviour'
A story is coming out of Vancouver about a cancelled fishing tournament at a resort co-owned by two former members of the Canucks. The resort is also under new interim management after allegations made by staff.
The fishing tournament at Tofino Resort, co-owned by Willie Mitchell and Dan Hamhuis, was supposed to run from September 9th to the 17th. A statement on the resort's website acknowledges the cancellation of the tournament, and states the facility is under new management.
We have brought in an interim manager and independent counsellor and continue to take steps to ensure the absolute safety and wellbeing of our team. - 1909
Ollie Happyness, a member of the band Downtown Mischief, told CTV News the band was playing at 1909, a bar and grill attached to the resort, Saturday night but were told to shut down early due to issues with staff.
While there has been no confirmation of involvement by Mitchell or Hamhuis, it has been noted by several reporters that Mitchell has shut down both his Instagram and Twitter accounts, which both carried several pictures of his fishing excursions.
Mitchell, now 45, spent four seasons playing for the Canucks from 2006 to 2010. He was born and raised in B.C. Hamhuis also grew up in B.C. He played for the Canucks from 2010 to 2016.
