Less than 24 hours after stepping down as B.C.'s solicitor general, Kash Heed showed no signs of stress appearing at Vancouver's Vaisakhi celebration.

On Saturday morning, Heed was shaking hands with constituents and participating in prayers at the Ross Street Sikh Temple.

Just one day earlier, he sat before a crowded room of reporters to announce that Mounties were investigating allegations that his campaign office violated advertising and finance rules in the Elections Act.

But if the former solicitor general was under pressure, he wasn't showing it.

"I'm feeling great, absolutely a fantastic day," Heed said with a smile.

Heed told CTV News he was enjoying the warm reception he received from the public at the Vaisakhi parade, and that he had little to say about the ongoing RCMP investigation.

"I know very little about this, and really can't comment on it," he said. "I've done nothing wrong and I'll fully cooperate with the police."

The RCMP has been similarly tight-lipped about the investigation. Insp. Tim Shields said several people from Heed's campaign office are under investigation, but would not elaborate.

A report to Crown counsel will be completed by June, Shields said, noting a one-year statute of limitations on Elections Act violations.

Three resignations in two years

Heed is the third Liberal solicitor general forced to resign over allegations of wrongdoing in the past two years.

John Les resigned from the post in March 2008 after it was revealed he was part of an RCMP investigation that alleged he improperly benefited from land deals while he was serving as mayor of Chilliwack.

And John van Dongen resigned as solicitor general in April 2009 after it was revealed he lost his driver's licence for numerous speeding tickets. He was serving as Superintendent of Motor Vehicles at the time.

Premier Gordon Campbell, who also attended the Vaisakhi celebration, said the office of solicitor general carries a higher standard of responsibility.

"When you're the chief law enforcement officer in the province you take on additional and I think onerous responsibilities," Campbell said.

"It's important to protect the integrity of the process."

The exact focus of the investigation isn't yet known, but some believe it has to do with a campaign flyer sent to Chinese speaking residents in Heed's Vancouver-Fraserview riding.

The flyer accuses Heed's NDP opponent Gabriel Yiu of planning to legalize drugs and increase taxes. It also made no mention of who paid for it.

Yiu said he's anxious to learn more about the nature of the investigation -- but with neither Heed nor the RCMP revealing many details, Yiu, like everyone else, will have to wait.
