Two-time Olympic gold medalist Kaillie Humphries asked to be released from Team Canada in order to compete for Team USA after accusing Bobsleigh Canada of harassment.

Humphries, who competed for Canada at the 2010 and 2014 Winter Olympics, claimed she has been waiting to be released from Bobsleigh Canada for several weeks, CBC Sports reported Thursday.

“I want to say thank you to Canada, who has been a huge support. It's really hard. It's hard. This has been my life,” the 34-year-old champion said. “This has been a 15-year career. It's been everything I've dreamed of since I was a kid.

"To know that a country has supported me so strongly and the people in the country have been so great — that I have to either consider being forcefully retired and having somebody else dictate what happens to my career.”

Humphries filed the complaint against Bobsleigh Canada in August 2018 and is suing the organization for blocking her release from the national team and for breaching a contract over athlete-coach code of conduct, according to CBC Sports.

She told the news organization in January she was in “a position where my workplace environment was impaired and I couldn't compete.” The internal investigation is ongoing.

Bobsleigh Canada didn’t comment on Humphries’ case but said it still follows its harassment and discrimination policy, which was set in 2006.

Humphries told CBC Sports she'd rather compete for Team USA. She is marrying American Travis Armbruster, who competed as a brakeman for the U.S. men’s bobsleigh team, on Saturday.

“Being put into an environment that is unsafe. It's not OK, let alone I'm going to be punished just for stating that those facts are existing to me,” she told CBC Sports. “It was a very hard decision, it still is a very hard decision to get to this point. At the end of the day, I have to be who I am, I have to be strong.”

According to International Olympic Committee rules, an athlete who plans on changing countries may participate in the Games to “represent his new country provided that at least three years have passed since the competitor last represented [their] former country.”
