He was accompanied by a few people from his campaign team.

They walked over to the nearby DEO within the Belmont Market shopping mall from Parmar’s nearby campaign office on Jacklin Road, ironically enough passing by the Sooke School District (SD62) administration building where Parmar has served as a trustee for nearly 10 years.
