Saint John M-P Rodney Weston finds himself under the gun to change his mind and vote not to get rid of the long gun registry.
A direct appeal is being made by Chris Waldshutz who chairs the Police Commission. He says the Police Commission is unanimously in favour of retaining the registry after hearing from Police Chief Bill Reid who likens having the information to working either in the light or the dark.
Mayor Ivan Court who's a member of the Police Commission as well as President of the Canadian Association of Police Boards maintains the issue has become too politicised and to vote against keeping the registry on that basis is unjustified to the point of irresponsibility.
