Vote of Thanks: President of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Vancouver, BC

Looks like another attempt of muslims to seek converts, lol, little they know it always backfires on them. I'm concerned about the speaker who will talk on behalf of Sikhi, does anyone know him/his work?

-If anyone goes, PLEASE make sure you setup a stall outside with a bunch of sikhi books, because at the end people do want to take some home.

I think Bh. Parminder Singh Ji used to represent Sikhi in this conference and he did a very good job. I hope Bh. Surinder Singh will try to do his best presenting the Sikh perspective.
