PROTOCOLE
DE MONTRÉAL
POUR LA
BIENVEILLANCE
EN SPORT
A highlight of the Montreal 2025 Sports Summit was the adoption and signing of the Montreal Protocol for Kindness in Sport. Drafted by the ethics committee of the Montreal Sports Council, this protocol embodies a collective commitment to placing kindness, respect, and inclusion at the heart of all sporting activities.
Its implementation brought together athletes, coaches, parents, officials, administrators and volunteers, all united around a common goal: to promote a healthy and positive sporting environment, where every action counts.
This protocol is not just a document: it is the starting point of a movement that will unfold in the clubs, organizations and sports communities of Quebec, so that sport remains above all a source of pleasure, achievement and love.
