Yukon MP Larry Bagnell voted for Bill C-391, which would eliminate the long-gun registry, for both 1st and 2nd readings.
However, since his Liberal Party leader, Michael Ignatieff, has said he will now whip his caucus’ vote on the bill, Mr. Bagnell has stated that he will now vote against the bill and support keeping the long-gun registry intact.
Ironically Mr. Bagnall was co-chair of the federal Outdoor Caucus. Don’t know whether that committee is still functioning and if it is, whether Mr. Bagnall is still involved.
An interesting report and commentary on an interview with Mr. Bagnell over his vote switch:
