Join us for a special author event featuring Jeremy Allingham, investigative journalist and author of Major Misconduct. This new, non-fiction work scrutinizes the detrimental role that fighting plays in ice hockey. The book dives deep into the lives of three former hockey fighters who, years after their playing days ended, are still struggling with the pain and suffering that comes from on-ice fighting.
Jeremy Allingham is an award-winning journalist and musician from Vancouver. He works for the CBC, where some of his most recent and poignant work has included in-depth coverage of fighting in junior hockey; the opioid crisis; climate catastrophe and the energy industry; the craft beer industry; local, provincial, and federal politics; and pretty much anything and everything sports and music related.
