Parm Gill was born in India and moved to Canada at age fourteen. He has a diploma in Private Investigation and was the senior vice-president of Paramount Manufacturing during his first run for public office in 2006.^[3] In 2008, he ran a family-owned business in the hospitality sector. He has volunteered with the Malaysian Singapore Cultural Association and the Peel Regional Police.^[4]

Despite his defeat in the 2008 election, Gill accompanied Immigration Minister Jason Kenney on a post-election trip to India. While in Punjab, he told reporters that the Conservatives would reduce the immigration rejection rate for Punjabi youths. Some speculated that this announcement had more to do with political concerns in Canada than with economic recruitment.^[5] It is believed that Gill plans to run again in the next federal election.^[6]

[edit] Sudbury: Gerry Labelle

Gerry Labelle was born in Mattawa and raised in Sudbury. He is a businessperson and community volunteer in the city, operating a consulting firm.^[9] He is also a founding member of Music and Film in Motion, and has served on the board of several non-profit organizations. At the time of the election, he was a member of the poverty committee on the city's Social Planning Council.^[10]

Labelle became involved in a minor controversy during the 2008 campaign when he made statements in a French-language interview that seemed critical of the Conservative government. According to a press release from Liberal incumbent Diane Marleau, Labelle criticized Finance Minister Jim Flaherty for describing Ontario as "the last place" to invest, took issue with the government's decision to abolish the Court Challenges Program of Canada, and said that he was not impressed with the Conservative Party's environmental record. He later issued a "complete retraction", saying that he had not expressed himself clearly and was fully supportive of the Harper government.^[11] Labelle later spoke in support of the arts community, and rejected arguments that his party was hostile to the arts.^[12] Late in the campaign, the Sudbury Star newspaper opined that he "did not come across as a Harper Conservative".^[13]

Labelle received 11,073 votes (25.79%), finishing third against New Democratic Party candidate Glenn Thibeault. He said that he will probably run for Conservatives again in the future.^[14]
