Official statement expected Thursday

Thunder Bay Rainy River MP John Rafferty is keeping mum on his fellow NDP counterparts changing their positions on the long gun registry.  Rafferty will be making an official announcement on how he will vote Thursday afternoon.  Thunder Bay Superior North MP Bruce Hyer has announced he is committed to seeing the long gun registry scrapped.  N-D-P Leader Jack Layton says he's confident his caucus will deliver the votes the opposition needs to defeat a Tory bill to abolish the registry.
