Married doctors Bennion and Auld will lead Canada’s Olympic hockey medical teams in Milan.
Dr. Laura Bennion, from Vancouver, and Dr. Ian Auld, from Victoria, are the married lead physicians for Canada’s women’s and men’s Olympic hockey squads. They will travel together to Milan‑Cortina in Italy for the 2026 Winter Games, which begin on Feb. 4. Bennion was in Switzerland preparing for athletes after the PWHL’s Olympic break, while Auld is readying for the men’s team.
