“I have known Sunil for 25 years as a friend, colleague and confidante.  Over these years, we have had many discussions about politics,  government, society, and medicine.  Sunil has always been a very good listener when I needed someone to listen and always gave good advice free of bias.  He was always careful to listen to both sides of the argument before weighing in with his opinion or advice.  With his intelligence, he would frequently come up with something that I wouldn’t have thought of, much to my irritation some days.  This was always appreciated even if I disagreed with him about the issue.  Nonetheless, this never impacted our friendship and I have come to depend on his honest opinion about things.  

I believe that he will carry these abilities with him if he is successful at becoming a member of the Senate.  He will represent the citizens of Alberta with honesty and intelligence taking into consideration multiple viewpoints without carrying the burden of any party affiliations or biases.  This is something we need if we expect the Senate to be the chamber of sober second thoughts.  I wholeheartedly support Sunil’s candidacy for the Senate and hope that you will too.”
