His family and friends couldn’t be more proud.
"We’re proud of Nasem, proud of his journey," said Mo Haidar, Kadri’s brother in-law. "It’s almost so surreal for his family and his friends,” he added. Haidar is a member of Kadri’s charitable foundation and sits on the organizing committee for an upcoming parade.
A parade will depart at noon that day from the London Muslim Mosque. It will make its way east along Oxford St., then turn south on Richmond, and finish at Victoria Park. Fans can line the parade route, take in the celebrations, and offer their congratulations, said Haidar.
"Nazem will speak, he’ll be there with the cup so people can see it. People are encouraged to come out there and have a look and see the Stanley Cup first hand."
