to City Council on Saturday, November 15 “Maillardville holds a special place in Coquitlam. Our city is a collection of diverse neighbourhoods, and these diversities are one of the reasons why our city is such a great place to live, work and play. I want us to respect these diversities, these unique neighbourhoods, as we move forward, change, and grow. By listening to residents, to the community, in addressing issues, we can realize a future where Coquitlam - especially Maillardville - is not only a desirable place to raise our families but is strong, active, vibrant and prosperous.”
