So, while the Opposition Leader goes on his listening tour, another Northern politician, the UDP's Health Minister Pablo Marin says that he made up his mind to vote yes.
We caught up with him at another event, and he told us that the hope is that his constituents in Corozal Bay will soon start to benefit directly from the ICJ education campaign:

"Are you pro-ICJ?"
Hon. Pablo Marin, Minister of Health
"I think I have to say it. I see my friend in the back saying no. But I look at it in the way that if you have your house, your land, definitely you have that boundary all around and then your neighbor is a big guy who always try to threaten you and pushed you around and sometimes when he wants to do his barbeque he does it in your yard. What would you do? You have to go and do it legally for you to be able to say you cannot come it. If you come into my land then we will deal with it accordingly."

"What are you doing to educate the voters in your constituency?"
Hon. Pablo Marin, Minister of Health
"We will start to go to the media and we will try to have some of the people go there and for them to educate them and the way forward. But definitely I believe we are supposed to go to the ICJ."
