From CBC News (B.C. Sikh parade should be investigated, says MP, May 11, 2007):

B.C. Liberal MP Ujjal Dosanjh says police should be investigating a Sikh parade in Surrey last month that featured a photo of Talwinder Parmar — the man believed by authorities to have been the mastermind of the Air India bombings.

Surrey's annual Vaisakhi parade was attended by Conservative, Liberal and NDP politicians and included Parmar in its display of Sikh martyrs and saints.
