↵In that interview, Burke talked about the ambitions of the group, which seeks to make the sporting world a friendlier place for lesbian, gay and transgender athletes.

↵↵Our intention is to spread into all sports at all levels. We’re not just limiting ourselves to hockey or the National Hockey League. We have a long-term plan involving all men’s and women’s sports at all levels.
