国际足联主席赛普·布拉特宣布辞职后，越来越多人呼吁国际足联实行重大改革。澳大利亚足球联盟主席弗兰克·罗伊称，布拉特的辞职应为足联改革打开大门。美国媒体报道，布拉特正在为参与足联贪腐案接受FBI调查。他否认所有过错。理查德·卡尔文报道：

” The US??Department of Justice,the US Attorney General made it clear that this is only the beginning of their investigations into the FIFA.What we will see, I think perhaps ,in the days to come ,in the weeks to come ,is how closed Sepp Blatter was implicated in these,but he seems confident that he can carry on??at least until the end of the year,or into early 2016 and??have an orderly transition of power.That is what he wants to do now,he wants to try salvage whatever is left of his reputation,and trying leave FIFA,in his words, having been radically??reformed. “

美国司法部部长声称这仅仅是对国际足联调查的开始。我认为，在未来的几天里，我们将会看到赛普·布拉特与这起案件的关系有多近，但似乎他很自信他至少能持续到年底，或者2016年早期，并有一个有纪律的权力过渡。这是目前他想要做的，他想要做任何事来保留自己的名声，想离开国际足联，用他自己的话说，这已经彻底改革了。

”Right now,I am lean at the control room.And about 8meters??under my feet, it is a LHC beam pipe .And there are bunches of protons that have been accelerated up to 6.5 TeV energy, and they are squeezing this beam down at the moment . And we are about to get missions pretty soon, I think,The things are very, very exciting for you can cut the intension in here with the knief. 

“目前，我在控制室学习。在我脚下大约8米的地方是大型强子对撞机束流管，管中的质子被加速到6.5伏，现在它们正把管子挤向下。我们很快就会完成这项任务，我认为，快刀转乱麻将会是很有趣的。”

“In the period from confederation until the decision to close residential schools was taken in this country in 1969, Canada clearly participated in a period of cultural genocide. We heard of the facts of over one hundred years of mistreatment, of more than 150,000 First Nations, Inuit and native children placed in these schools, removed from their families and home communities. Seven generations of aboriginal children were denied their identity.”
