Day by day, e-mail by e-mail, interview by interview, the truth of the Dominic Maestracci story is coming clear. There’s still a baffling lack of concrete detail, but an overall consensus – soft leader, impulsive interventionist – is emerging.
The president of the Canadian Soccer Association rarely speaks, and when he does, the waters get muddier, not clearer. I have tried – repeatedly and on many fronts – to get Canadian soccer people to say positive things about the man who leads them.
It isn’t happening.
So please consider this an open call for good news, and positive perspective.

Anyone out there with something significant and favourable to say about Maestracci’s contribution to Canadian soccer, please speak up.
Shed light on his role in landing the 2015 Women’s World Cup for Canada. Clarify his leadership in governance reform. Where in his background areas of expertise – officiating, Quebec soccer – has he made a true and telling difference?
I want everything you’ve got.
Make me – make all of us – believe there is more to this man than the odd, strange things he so very rarely says in public.
