But Pilon said the nature of the provincial Liberal party requires a delicate balance to ensure the entire membership is content. “I think the party has to be careful on the kind of candidate. They are a coalition of federal Liberals and Conservatives,” he said. “They can’t have anybody too far to the right, because that will alienate those centre supporters they have; whereas the far-right people, they have

MP James Moore hasn’t publicly shown interest in replacing Gordon Campbell, but he also hasn’t ruled out taking a run at B.C.’s top job. nowhere else to go.” Even Campbell had it tough as he ascended the ranks, Pilon said, recalling how some party members had been reticent to embrace the former Vancouver mayor because of a perception that he was too urban. “There aren’t enough highprofile Liberals. It’s a tough one, a challenge for them to find someone who can unify the party,” Pilon said.

Meanwhile, Sharpe described the “Draft James Moore” campaign as in “grassroots stages right now,” and said he has been using social media like Facebook, Twitter, blogs and websites to spread the message. “It’s just getting the word out there and getting James Moore into the conversation of people who should be considered running,” he said. “Right now, there are no other outsiders running … I think there’s real opportunity for someone outside of the BC Liberal Party to come in and make a real difference and reenergize the party. “James Moore is 34; he’s been elected for 10 years; he’s got a long way to go in his political career. Who knows, maybe that will be in the province?” A message was left Monday for Moore’s communications director in Ottawa to arrange for an interview with the local MP on his thoughts about the draft campaign and whether he would be interested in seeking the provincial Liberal party leadership. As of deadline Tuesday afternoon, neither the director nor Moore had returned The NOW’s call.

‘The dog owners have won’ I have read with interest over the past several months the letters to the editor in both local papers from people concerned about dogs off leash in public areas. Here’s what no one wants to say: “Get over it! The dog owners have won.” Here’s how I know they’ve won: 1) I walk the Shoreline Trail in Port Moody every day. In October I did an informal survey, and a full 80 per cent of dogs were not on leash. To The 2) Of that majority of dog owners who illegally choose to keep their dog off leash, I witnessed two members of Port Moody city council walking dogs without a leash. 3) I have never seen a bylaw enforcement officer anywhere near the Shoreline Trail, and I’m certain a call to City Hall to enquire how many tickets they handed out for failing to restrain a dog in the past year would be a negligible number.

When the majority of people ignore a law, and our elected officials and civil servants fail to enforce a law, there is no law. Here’s what I have chosen to do: First, I thank the small minority of dog owners who have respect for others by keeping their dog on leash, and cleaning up after it. I love dogs; it’s most dog owners I have a problem with. Second, as a result of too many close Editor calls with aggressive dogs threatening me and my family in public spaces, I carry bear spray with me when I walk the Shoreline Trail. I’d prefer not to use it, but in the absence of any meaningful response from the city, the choice between my family’s safety and the comfort of an offleash dog is a very clear one.

Our View

TransLink structure is the problem

ransLink is a train wreck. The management structure devised by then-transportation minister Kevin Falcon in 2004 has lurched from funding crisis to funding crisis, buying and building like there’s no tomorrow and then pleading poverty when it comes to day-to-day budgeting. The plans, unveiled last Tuesday, to pay for the Evergreen Line and the North Fraser Perimeter Road are yet another pile-up. Once again, the unelected TransLink board emerged from a secret meeting to stick their whole spending plan onto property tax rolls. The region’s mayors know that property taxes are already high, already growing and already earmarked for mandatory big-dollar projects like solid waste and sewage treatment plants, not to mention the everyday running of their municipalities. TransLink seems oblivious to this — and likely doesn’t care that agreeing to raise property taxes is political suicide for any Metro Vancouver mayor. The funding of transportation should be reconnected to the use of transportation through some combination of gas tax, a vehicle levy and, yes, the tolling of some routes. Pillaging municipal budgets is not only unfair, it’s just not sustainable. More importantly though, the province needs to clean up its mess and reconnect the people who make the plans with the people who are going to pay for them. This means doing away with the TransLink cabal, which effectively holds the region’s mayors for ransom by producing a fait accompli plan and only giving them an up-or-down vote. The taxpayer’s interests should be in the minds of planners at every stage, not just at the very end. We elected our mayors and councillors to lead — let’s let them do it.

The biggest problem with Campbell sticking There are two precedents for the Liberal caucus around for a fairly long time (it will be at least late February, if not later, before the party gets around to to fall back on.

But that is a meaningless argument. arguably the most critical time of the year — the

Parliamentary tradition stipulates that a caucus — not a political party — can choose the person to lead that caucus. It may be possible, in fact, for the caucus to vote for a new premier — even if Campbell remains the leader of the Liberal party. I’m filing this column on Monday. The Liberal caucus meets on Friday. By announcing he was stepping down, Campbell avoided one potentially divisive caucus meeting. But I’m not sure he can emerge unscathed from the next one. ••• Meanwhile, the other political leader who is in trouble with her own party is facing a pivotal meeting of her own. NDP leader Carole James meets with the party’s provincial council this weekend in Victoria. Despite the internal grumbling over her leadership, I don’t think she’ll face a rough ride from the party activists. Those demanding that she step down as leader are, for the most part, voices from the past (ex-MLAs like Corky Evans, Dale Lovick and Helmut Giesbrecht) or a small minority (five of 85 constituency association executives). And New Democrats clamouring for a change at the top have to ask themselves this key question: Do they want to be known as the party that allowed a bunch of left-wing males to push a moderate female from the job? I didn’t think so. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Coquitlam want and need the Evergreen Line, but of course it is expensive and we, the people, have to keep paying more and more taxes, under different names, to come up with the ever-so-needed money. We feel that we are overtaxed, way overtaxed, so there is a question that I want to ask: Why don’t the banks pay taxes? We all know that they make a tremendous profit, close to a billion dollars a year, each one of them, Editor and still for one reason or another I never hear that they pay a single dollar, so they laugh all the way to the bank, pun intended. Of course, they put some money in some way into the community, and they make well sure that we know about it; in the end it is a mere pittance of what they make, so they can feel happy about a job well done. They are probably protected by some law or another, but it is time for the banks and for the government to get real; they should give something back to the community. If they cannot be taxed, change the law then. There is always a way to go around, such as a “voluntary donation,” or any other name, say of a half-million dollars annually. Then, property assessment of, again, half a million dollars, paid annually, and community profit share of, say, five per cent. The banks should have to pay every year for a permit to open a business, another $100,000 annually. Surely there must be some other way to get some money from them, and most

City wants input on dog parks Jennifer McFee jmcfee@thenownews.com Where do you want Rover to rove free? The City of Coquitlam is currently accepting public feedback on potential new offleash dog areas. Three sites are being considered, with a budget of $80,000. The first option is a fenced off-leash site at Glen Park. The proposed 10,000-squaremetre area would be located in the northeast corner of the park, close to parking and amenities. The site would have a trail network connecting the forested northeast area of the park and an open area at the edge of the forest. This project would require fencing, minor clearing and preparation of the trail network. The next possibility is a fenced off-leash area in the northwest corner of Town Centre Park, located at the corner of David Avenue and Pinetree Way. The proposed 3,000-square-metre site, located above the upper parking lot, is not currently designated for active use. This project would require fencing, enhanced ground cover and shrub installation at the fence line along David Avenue. The third option is an

The area could be accessed at Gabriola Drive, Anvil Court and Ozada Avenue, with limited parking available along Ozada. This project would require signs to indicate designated hours, as well as to tell dog owners to keep dogs out of the river and away from environmentally sensitive areas. Feedback can be provided until Thursday, Nov. 18 through the city’s online forum and an online questionnaire at www.coquitlam.ca. For more information or to provide feedback, call the city at 604-927-3553 or e-mail dogoffleash@coquitlam.ca.

Dogs can currently be taken off-leash at five Coquitlam sites. A fenced off-leash area is located south of Bramblewood Park between Panorama and David Avenue.

Honouring our heroes

n Nov. 11, Tri-Cities residents paid tribute to the men and women who served their country and fought for freedom. In Coquitlam, the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 263 hosted Remembrance Day services that began at Como Lake Middle School. Then children and great grandchildren were invited to march with their veteran grandma or grandpa in a parade to Coquitlam’s cenotaph for the act of remembrance and laying of the wreaths. After the act of remembrance Visit www.thenownews.com for a gallery and laying of of Remembrance Day photos. the wreaths, the parade continued from the cenotaph back to the legion hall for activities. In Port Coquitlam, Legion Branch No. 133 began Remembrance Day services at Wilson Centre, followed by a procession to the cenotaph at Veterans Park. Meanwhile, in Port Moody, Legion Branch No. 119 started Remembrance Day events with a non-denominational service at the Chip Kerr Auditorium. After that, a parade travelled to the cenotaph for ceremonies featuring the Seymour Artillery’s 21-gun salute.

DENTURE WEARERS!

Take Pain Out of the Picture With ACUPUNCTURE

✃

Jane Wang says she has over 34 years of experience as an Acupuncturist. Three of Janes patients attest to the effectiveness of Acupuncture. 1. Mr. Gao is 58 years-old and contracted Shingles with bubbles around the waist area. It caused him a lot of pain for about three months. After Acupuncture treatment, he is free of pain. 2. Mrs. Yong is 52 years-old and complained of headaches and hearing sounds inside her head. She also complained she had ringing in her ears and had difficulties hearing. She came for help and after two sessions plus some TCM medicine, she can now hear normally. 3. Scott is 23 years-old and a senior at SFU. He coughed continually for 3 years but stopped completely after just 3 treatments. He is now strong and coughs no more. Jane says the clinic can help such problems as Arthritis, Shingles, Deftness, Allergies, Infections, Backaches, Rheumatism, Over-weight, Scatica, Knee/Neck/Shoulder Pain, Migrains, Headaches, Hemmroids, Stroke, Insomnia, Coughes, & Quit Smoking

Business

Chamber announces 2010 award finalists Jennifer McFee jmcfee@thenownews.com The shortlist is in. The Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce has announced the finalists in the running for the 10th Annual Business Excellence Awards, designed to recognize outstanding busi-

nesses in the Tri-Cities. Following a nominees’ lunch held at The Boathouse last month, the chamber has narrowed down the contenders in four categories. The non-profit award will go to one of three local organizations: Coquitlam Public Library, Place des Arts or Port Moody Ecological Society.

For small business of the year, three companies will compete: Innovative Fitness in Port Moody, Me-N-Ed’s Pizza in Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, and Trophy Centre in Port Coquitlam. The title of business leader of the year will go to either Erin Davidson of Austin Heights BIA, Doug Morneau

of Rhino Marketing or Layne Magnuson of Metro Motors. Three businesses will also vie for the business leader of the year award: Natural Factors in Coquitlam, Scotiabank Coquitlam Centre and Tri-Cities Thrifty Foods in Coquitlam and Port Moody. The newsmaker of the year is yet to be announced.

One winner in each category will be announced and celebrated at the 10th Annual Business Excellence Awards Gala on Jan. 29, 2011, at the Red Robinson Show Theatre. For tickets, register online at www.tricitieschamber.com or contact the chamber at 604-464-2716 or info@ tricitieschamber.com.

Stella Price, Prudential Real Estate’s No. 1 producer in North America in both 2007 and 2008, has moved to Re/Max. Price closed 140 transactions and grossed $2.2 million in commissions as an individual, according to a press release. After seven years with Prudential, she switched to Re/Max Sabre Realty Group in Port Coquitlam in October. “I’d be successful anywhere, because I love this business and I work hard, but I can do even better with Re/Max,” said Price, who brought her team of one licensed agent and a licensed assistant — and 61 listings — with her. “In fact, a lot of my clients were surprised that I wasn’t already with Re/Max because the brand has a stellar reputation here.” Price credits her success to focusing on a specific area. “Don’t try to be everywhere. Choose a subdivision or neighbourhood you want to dominate and market like crazy,” she advised. “Start with smaller properties like condos and work your way up. If you’re new to the business, you have to sell yourself because you don’t have listings to work with yet. “Don’t let people see you sweat or tell prospects that you’re new. They won’t work with you.”

Satisfy your appetite at Sammy J’s! N E W AT T I T U D E - N E W M E N U If you haven’t dined at Sammy J Pepper’s for a while, you, and your palate, will be pleasantly surprised by the changes that have evolved over the past few months. The six-restaurant chain, owned and operated by brothers Mike and Steve Gardner, has given itself a face-lift by revamping its menu, its décor, it’s philosophy and its name. In keeping with its new identity and new concept, Sammy J’s is now Sammy J’s Grill & Bar. It’s the place to come in Coquitlam to experience new ﬂavours, sensations, mingle, have fun, and most of all, satisfy your appetite with sinfully delicious, healthy food. The heart of Sammy J’s new attitude is its menu, which includes new entrees and signature favourites. If you yearn for its mouthwatering Sterling Silver Steak Bites or its delectable 4 Cheese Penne with Blackened Chicken, no need to worry, they are still on the menu. Also note that Sammy J’s is not just about spicy food - although they have kept some of its popular hot dishes on the menu - it’s so much more. The new menu launched last month with artisan ﬂatbread pizzas, an Italian Corner with additional pasta dishes and healthy Oceanwise seafood plates, to name just a few. “All in keeping with our philosophy of keeping it simple and fresh,” says Steve. There’s no pretension here; just unabashed good times. It’s an eatery where customers can mingle during a football game and bond over a beer or glass of wine, or for a family to come and enjoy a fun dining experience. The setting is comfortable, warm and inviting; with

oversized leather seating that beg unhurried dining and large P.S. If you want to stay home and cook, Sammy’s can spice high deﬁnition televisions. up your meal. The restaurant offers a wide variety of hot “We want to be the destination for sports enthusiasts and sauces, barbecue sauces and its private label spices, blended speciﬁcally for the chain. we will show all Pay-Per-View games,” adds Steve. Even when Mike and Steve aren’t working, their passion for food lives on. They recently placed second out of 50 culinary teams from across North America in the prestigious Canadian National BBQ Championships, held in Whistler. Sammy J’s is a great example of a home-grown restaurant chain that is listening to its clients and evolving with the times. Mike and Steve look forward to welcoming you to any one of its restaurants. Monday night football began again in September and Sammy J’s is celebrating with great prizes, giveaways, beer and food specials. Of course, expect great food and a fantastic atmosphere while you cheer on your team. Sammy’s is located at 1075 Lougheed Highway across from the Ikea.

Recycling Styrofoam and other products helps Place Maillardville fund programs Jennifer McFee jmcfee@thenownews.com Tri-Cities residents now have one more recycling resource. Starting this weekend, Pacific Mobile Depots will set up shop in the parking lot at Place Maillardville every third Saturday morning. For a fee, the mobile recycling outlet will accept soft film plastics, hard rigid plastics, foil-lined tetra packs, acrylic, polycarbonate, Styrofoam, dairy and nondairy gable-top cartons, mixed paper and electronics. The initiative is a fundraiser for Place Maillardville’s children’s and youth programs, including theatre, French, youth and family drop-ins, plus early childhood and preschool activities. Pacific Mobile Depots takes the first $375 collected. After that, Place Maillardville will receive 20 per cent of the funds. Louise Allen, a youth worker at Place Maillardville, said people can pay $3.75 to drop off a bag of recycling. Electronics will also be accepted, with costs ranging from $2.75 to $8.50 apiece.

Jade, left, Tiana and Dayna sort through recyclables at Place Maillardville. Every third Sunday, starting Nov. 20, Pacific Mobile Depots will set up in the parking lot of the Coquitlam arts facility to collect items for recycling, such as Styrofoam, foil wrapping, electronics and bike tires. “The more people that show up, the better,” Allen said. “This is really benefitting the community. It’s a different kind of fundraiser. You can save the environment. You can save the city money by not tossing it in your garbage can. There’s not many

outlets that take these kinds of materials. It’s really a niche thing.” Place Maillardville also hopes to team up with local coffee shops and pubs to raise funds by collecting bags filled with recyclable waste. The fundraiser will launch

on Saturday, Nov. 20 from 9 a.m. to noon at Place Maillardville, located at 1200 Cartier Ave. in Coquitlam. The event will continue every third Saturday. For more information on accepted materials, visit www. pacificmobiledepots.com.

Sports Score Card

Cents, Ravens locked in for quarterfinals For the Terry Fox Ravens, Saturday’s 5:30 p.m. battle with the Notre Dame Jugglers is the beginning of their playoff run. For the Centennial Centaurs, it’s one down, and hopefully more to come. The Centaurs head to Kelowna after winning the B.C. High School senior AAA football playoff opener 53-28 over Mount Douglas last week. It started with a double reverse on their opening possession, resulting in Bobby Pospischil hitting Jamie Moors for a 56-yard touchdown. Cents coach Ryk Piche said the same kind of preparation will be required against the Interior Conference champion Kelowna Owls this weekend. “We really did our homework on them and picked a gameplan that everyone could stick with,” Piche said. “We worked on that double-reverse for quite a while, it really caught them off guard but we’ll probably try something new (on Kelowna).” The tandem of running back Jason Buren and Pospischil, the quarterback, accounted for 28 points, while Pospischil also threw three TD passes that covered 133 yards. But the Owls will present a completely different test for the Cents. “I’ve got nine game films, and [Kelowna’s] a very good team,” Piche said. “They run a spread offence that’s similar to ours, and their quarterback, Taylor Loffler, is a stud.” Loffler has a NCAA commitment with Boise State, and completed 37 of 57 pass attempts during the regular season, including seven touchdowns. He averaged 73 yards a carry with the ball. The No. 1-ranked Ravens, meanwhile, take on the 3-3 Jugglers, 5:30 p.m. at UBC’s Thunderbird Stadium. While Fox earned a bye into the quarterfinals, Notre Dame blanked Salmon Arm 38-0. If Fox and Centennial both win, they will cross paths one more time in next week’s semifinal at UBC.

Express turn corner behind red-hot goalie Dan Olson sports@thenownews.com The jubilation that Brad Reid expressed a week ago when he busted a personal slump proved contagious. The Coquitlam Express wiped out three weeks of losses by ringing up two victories and a tie this past week, led by the rediscovery of some timely offensive finish and the stellar netminding of Khaleed Devji. Reid scored the game winner last Wednesday in a 3-1 victory over the Nanaimo Clippers, a tally that ended a personal 10-game scoring drought. Devji, meanwhile, turned aside 73 shots during back-to-back decisions over Nanaimo and archrival Langley Chiefs (4-2 on Friday). He blocked 36 more in Sunday’s 3-3 tie with the Alberni Valley Bulldogs. “I can’t say enough about that guy,” Reid said of Devji. “He saved us in the Nanaimo game, virtually won it for us. And he came up big against Langley and Alberni, too.” Coquitlam was outshot 4422 by the Clippers, but staked out a 3-0 lead on tallies by Riley McIntosh, Reid and Destry Straight before the game was 30 minutes old. Only a tally midway through the third, by ex-Express player Brodie Jamieson, robbed the 5’7 goalie of the shutout. Reid’s goal came on a brilliant individual play that saw him cut around the defenceman back to the net, before burying it past the Clippers’ Charles-Andre Pelletier. It was his 11th of the season, and ended a 10-game scoreless drought. Paul vanPeenen/NOW “It was a long time coming,” BUMPING THE SLUMP: Coquitlam Express’ captain Garrick Perry, left, collides with Nanaimo’s Graeme he noted. “It was good to get that McCormack during last week’s 3-1 Express win that ended an eight-game losing streak.

Blues bust out Dan Olson dolson@thenownews.com The Port Moody Blues are hoping to take full advantage of a bronze bounce heading into next week’s B.C. senior boys provincial soccer championships in Burnaby. The Blues secured its berth by placing third overall at the Fraser Valley championships — a route that required plenty of rallies and inspirational turns. Ali Fakhri’s marker in overtime locked up third place in a 2-1 win over Enver Creek last week, in a hard-fought contest. “The boys came out and for the most part controlled the game,” said Port Moody coach Anthony Marrello. “They seem to have made a habit of coming out on top in close games.” Taking the lead on Andre Pietramala’s tally in the first half, the Blues maintained that lead until the final minute, when Enver converted on a scramble off a corner kick to force extra time. Fakhri then cashed in the winner, beating three defenders on an individual effort. It came two days after Port Moody survived a showdown with Dr. Charles Best, outlasting their rivals 4-1 on goals by Rohan Bhan, Jesse Morris, Nima Simiei and Fakhri. That win provided just the boost needed for a final push for a top-three finish. It also came on the heels of their lone Valley loss, a 3-1 setback to eventual second-place finisher

North Delta. “The key element in our bounce back from the Delta loss was the real drive and heart demonstrated by our players,” Marrello noted. “They were heartbroken after losing to North Delta in overtime but showed amazing resilience [in] coming back so well against Charles Best.” Besides his strikers, Marrello pointed to the hard work put forth by centreback’s Blake Bjorndal and Matthew Fujii and midfielders Asmat Habibi and Pietramala as being a constant source of comfort during the long run. “In each game different players have stepped up and made a difference. For example, in our first Fraser Valley game our goalie, Sebastian Faber, was spectacular keeping the game within reach and eventually winning it for us in [the] shootout.” Port Moody now prepares for the provincials, which run Nov. 25-27 at Burnaby Lake complex. As third-best in the Fraser Valley, they will likely be slotted around eighth, but the pre-tourney ranking will not determine where they finish, Marrello said. “It is a tournament where anything can happen, so we are going into it with the same mentality we have had the entire season,” he said. “Work hard, play smart and find a way to win each game.” Best finished the tourney in sixth, after suffering a 5-0 defeat to Princess Margaret.

Solid showing at B.C.s

TIP TOP SHOT: Heritage Woods Kodiaks’ Shomas Mah pushes over a shot during his team’s game against Port Moody during last week’s North league senior boys volleyball playoff game.

Rapids sweep senior North league playoffs It proved to be clear sailing for the Riverside Rapids. The Rapids senior boys volleyball team cruised to victory at last week’s North League playoffs to advance to the AAA boys Fraser Valley tournaments. For the Riverside boys, the run began in the semifinals against Port Moody with a 25-8 opening set win. While the two sides were deadlocked 8-8 in the second set, the PoCo squad stepped on the gas and prevailed 25-14, and closed it out in convincing fashion with a 25-13 decision. Liam Brett delivered the emotional spark to keep the team focused, while

Victor Zych zeroed in on setting up attackers Hans Seo and Tyler Toscani. In the boys final, it was a true showdown with Dr. Charles Best Blue Devils. The two teams battled point-for-point until the Rapids racked up the final four to lead off with a 25-21 win. The second set wasn’t as tight, with Zych and Brett supplying strong serves and sets in a 25-17 decision. The match ended with a 25-11 whitewash, as Brendan Williams, Seo and Toscani layered on the offence against the Best defence. Coming through with some stellar stuff blocks was Chris Aisekhalaye, while

Spenser Andre dug out a handful of excellent saves. Heritage Woods and Gleneagle will serve as hosts this week of the Fraser Valleys, starting Thursday, 6 p.m. with No. 6-ranked Elgin Park playing 11th seed Port Moody. Heritage Woods plays No. 7 Kwantlen Park in the other game at Heritage Woods. At Gleneagle, No. 8-rated Best faces ninth-ranked Clayton Heights, while No. 5 Delta takes on either Yale or Tamanawis. Action continues Thursday at 8 p.m., with the finals slated for Saturday, 4 p.m. at Heritage Woods.

The Heritage Woods Kodiaks and Dr. Charles Best Blue Devils wrapped up successful senior girls field hockey seasons in style this past weekend, placing eighth and ninth respectively, at the B.C. High School championships in Victoria. The Kodiaks run included a win and a tie on opening day, with a 1-0 victory over North Surrey on Sydney Blaxland’s tally. Blaxland also scored in a 2-2 draw with Cowichan, with Mercedes Hamilton supplying the other marker. The squad failed to score the rest of the way, finishing with a 2-0 loss to Argyle. Best began with tough losses to West Vancouver and Handsworth. They turned it around and were undefeated the rest of the way, trumping McMath 2-0, Eric Hamber 4-0, Cowichan 3-1 and North Surrey 3-0 in the final match. Scoring to clinch ninth spot were Suzanne Coulson, with her team-leading third goal of the tournament, Nicole Cornwall and Picabo Reeves. Leading the way for Best, which was making its debut at the B.C. field hockey championships, were seniors Carmen Ang, Loryn Bohne, Natalie Buglioni, Suzanne Coulson, Carleigh Henly, Liane Klingbeil, Jessica Parker, Alyssa Renke and Allie Trenter. The Gleneagle Talons placed 12th overall, after a 1-0 loss to Cowichan. They tied Eric Hamber 3-3, getting two goals from Sydney Vlejacic and a single by Michelle Per. Gleneagle also edged McMath 2-0 behind tallies from Robin Goodman and Veljacic.

Peewee Wildcats blast White Rock There was little drama and less suspense in the first playoff game for the Coquitlam peewee Wildcats. Powered by a pair of touchdowns by Kimani Dorsey — one on offence and another on defence — the Wildcats blasted White Rock 39-0 in minor football action. Dorsey scored both his majors in the second half, capitalizing in on a 40-yard interception return for six points. Coquitlam opened the game by recovering the kickoff and built up a 14-0 lead at half-

time. Nicolas Greene and Max Kennedy scored the majors. In the second half, after White Rock made a valiant but unsuccessful attempt to get on the scoreboard, Greene added his second of the day, with Keon Taffe chipping in a TD. Defensively, the trio of Nico DePaoli, Jude Hussain and Mario Marra set a solid tone. In other quarterfinal action, the Coquitlam atom Bears blanked North Delta 14-0, while the Coquitlam Raiders trounced North Surrey 48-14 in junior bantam playoffs.
