It added: "Warnings to stay away from specific alleged criminals were once almost unheard-of, but they have been slowly increasing in recent years. This is the second one from the CFSEU in a little more than a year; the last one was prescient." Meninder Dhaliwal, who was on last year’s 11-man list, was gunned down in Whistler late last month in a shooting that had tourists and visitors screaming and running from the violence. Police said his brother, Harpreet, was the man shot dead in Vancouver’s Coal Harbour neighbourhood last year. Another brother, 35-year-old Gurpreet Dhaliwal, is on this year’s list.
