Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a journalist, businessman and politician, not reliably sourced as passing our notability criteria for any of those occupations. The attempted notability claim as a journalist is that he existed, with no coverage or analysis about the significance of his journalism; the attempted notability claim in business is that he won an internal staff award from his own employer, with no coverage or analysis about the significance of that; the attempted notability claim as a politician is that he was once a non-winning candidate in an election. None of those things clinch inclusion in Wikipedia, however: people are not "inherently" notable enough for Wikipedia just because they've done things -- the notability test isn't in the doing, it's in the amount of media coverage that third-party reliable sources opted to devote to analyzing it, but this is "referenced" entirely to primary sources that are not support for notability at all, such as directory entries and the self-published websites of organizations he's directly affiliated with. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be written and referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat (talk) 14:13, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete I see no coverage of this person in Canadian sources, plenty of coverage around the Air India bombing from the 1980s, likely due to similar names... Oaktree b (talk) 14:23, 18 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete per nomination, which, for better or worse, leaves little to add, except to underline the strong aroma of WP:COI in the article's curation. -The Gnome (talk) 15:57, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
