Harman Singh Kandola is a passionate advocate for social justice and anti-racism activism. Harman was born and brought up in Edmonton to immigrant parents who came to Canada from Punjab, India in the early 1970’s. Having spent all his life in the City of Edmonton, Harman worked his way through university, earning a Bachelor of Commerce and a Juris Doctor (JD) from the University of Alberta.

Beginning as a grassroots organizer, Harman has experience as a political organizer at both the provincial and municipal levels.
