I’m not deeply political, but my brother-in-law is running for re-election as Mayor of Coquitlam, and last night I attended the last All-Candidates’ Meeting (ACM), in Maillardville, the community Richard grew up in.
Richard probably shouldn’t have been there, but he’s pretty determined. The day before, the campaign trail had taken a sharp turn; while walking on a sidewalk in central Coquitlam, Richard was hit by a car and injured, aggravating his longstanding back disability. He was admitted to Royal Columbian Hospital, and the next day, despite his injuries, his doctor agreed to let him attend last night’s ACM.
As the meeting was ending, Richard was in obvious pain and distress. He got up and made it to the corner of the room, where he practically collapsed to the floor in significant pain. Several people came over to offer Richard assistance. One of them – firefighter Randy Delmonico, himself a candidate for City Council -- quickly took professional action, assessing Richard’s condition and assisting as needed.
However, there was another first-responder in the room. Barrie Lynch who is running for Mayor against Richard, is a paramedic, a point he makes at every All-Candidates’ Meeting. He has worked side-by-side on Council with Richard for six years, and knows full well the extent of Richard’s back disability. Many people in the room were disgusted to watch Councillor Lynch (along with Councillor Lou Sekora) scoffing at the pain Richard was obviously in; this from a paramedic! Do we really want someone as uncaring as this as our Mayor?
Thanks to Firefighter Delmonico and to the many people who expressed concern and offered to help in any way. Richard was taken back to hospital and released this morning. Even after being hit by a car, he hasn’t slowed down, bouncing back to his positive, energetic self. I am so proud of who Richard is and that that he has stuck to the high road.

He was sent to Eagleridge hospital and he had received permission from the doctor at RCH to attend the All Candidates Meeting at the night. People respect him as a strong man。 his doughter said: " I respect my father so much for always taking the high road and never attacking his opponent with insults or lies but instead focusing on the issues our city has to face. He shows true leadership. i love you dad."
现任高贵林市长 12日被车撞伤送去医院。但他还是坚持参加了12晚 的会议。 大家都为他的打不垮的精神感动，他女儿说：“ 我敬重我父亲，他经常教导我们说，要为大局想，不要用诋毁他人来的手段。。。。”
