September 21st is the day the House of Commons will decide whether or not to move forward with a vote to dismantle the long-gun registry.
Supporters of the registry are starting to speak up in a bid to keep what they say is a useful tool.
Kenora MP Greg Rickford won't tip his hand whether the Conservatives are planning a counter attack.
Rickford says he believes most of the Northern Ontario NDP MP's are still on side with Legislation to kill the registry even though two more New Democrats have indicated in the past week that they will vote against the private members bill.
