COQUITLAM, British Columbia - s4story -- The Election Polls are open now and Adel Gamar, who is hopefully Coquitlam's next Mayor sat down with Coquitlam Podcast I Only Touch Greatness Podcast to talk about his campaign and his childhood growing up in Coquitlam British Columbia. Once again this episode is sponsored by the legendary Coquitlam pub called The John B.

Growing up, He never imagined I would run for elected office. His family immigrated to Canada in 1987 and settled in Coquitlam. That year, he remember seeing Rick Hansen as he wheeled by one spring morning, ending his inspirational Man In Motion Tour. When he moved to River Heights, he attended Ranch Park Elementary and then Charles Best Jr. High. I played rugby for the Blue Devils and played bass and saxophone in band. He later graduated from Centennial.
