TORONTO — The Canadian Soccer Association says an independent review confirmed the Paris Olympics drone-spying scandal was not an isolated misstep. Canada Soccer CEO Kevin Blue said in a statement Friday the spying "was a symptom of a past pattern of an unacceptable culture and insufficient oversight within the national teams." Canada Soccer announced July 31 it had retained Sonia Regenbogen of the law firm of Mathews, Dinsdale & Clark to review the Olympic incident and any related matters. The CSA said it was reviewing the report and Blue said he expects to release conclusions and future steps within a week.
