The discussion over whether Russia will play in the upcoming world junior hockey championships continues, as Canada prepares to host the junior teams in Alberta next month.
Norway says the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) told them in a statement Sunday that their team is out, and the Russians are in.
This comes after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney previously said that Russia wouldn't be allowed to represent their country here.
As Global's Nathaniel Dove reports, the IIHF banned Russia from the tournament nearly five years ago, after the country invaded Ukraine.
