The Canadian women's soccer team, defending Olympic champions, has been embroiled in a spying scandal during the 2024 Paris Olympics. Head coach Bev Priestman and two staff members were suspended after being caught using drones to spy on New Zealand's training sessions. This scandal has tarnished their gold medal legacy from the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, with Canadian Olympic Committee CEO David Shoemaker expressing his dismay. Despite the controversy, Canada managed to secure a 2-1 victory over New Zealand in their opening match. Assistant coach Andy Spence has taken over the team, and Priestman is expected to return for their next game against France. The scandal has cast a shadow over the team's reputation and their Olympic campaign.
