Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price called “unjust” the Liberal government’s pending legislation aimed at further restricting legal access to shotguns and semi-automatic rifles. He added that he supports the organization Canadian Coalition for Firearms Rights.

“I love my family, I love my country and I care for my neighbour. I am not a criminal or a threat to society,” Price wrote in an Instagram post on Dec. 3. “What [Prime Minister Justin Trudeau] is trying to do is unjust.”
