Carey price where is he from

Although he spent lots of time on the ice, there was no indoor arena or hockey program in Anahim Lake. He began playing organized hockey at the age of 9 at the nearest arena located in Williams Lake, BC.

The commute to Williams Lake for games and practices required a km round trip three time per week. Being the son of Jerry, whose family are farmers and ranchers in Alberta and Lynda whose family were ranchers and hunting guide-outfitters at Anahim Lake, Carey has always had a natural love for animals and the outdoors.

There is no more relaxing place for him than the quiet forests and mountains of BC with his 2 Labrador retrievers Motty and Duke. Carey is also very proud of his Nuxalk and Southern Carrier Aboriginal heritage.

His descent is from a line of Chiefs and leaders which include his mother, Lynda, who was the first woman elected to the board of directors for the Union of BC Indian Chiefs. They met while Carey played junior hockey with the Tri-City Americans.

Angela has been a wonderful companion to Carey and is involved with several charities in Montreal and elsewhere. Pseudonyms will no longer be permitted.
