Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price has apologized for the timing of his social media posts criticizing Liberal gun control legislation in the days leading up to the anniversary of the École Polytechnic massacre but said he stands by his original comments and meant no disrespect.
Price wrote in an Instagram post on Dec. 3 that he opposes recent amendments made to Bill C-21 that, if passed, will restrict legal access in Canada to a number of shotguns and semi-automatic rifles typically used for hunting.
