The Editor,

Re. “West wants cities’ sparring stopped” (The Tri-City News, Nov. 4).

I have just read the article about the sparring between the cities of Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam over the Fremont connector.

It is high time Coquitlam got with the program. Who do they think they are telling PoCo they will not pay towards study costs for the connector?

I think the residents of PoCo have been more than generous. We have so many extra cars using Coast Meridian to Coquitlam, huge trucks up and down moving soil, etc. to build all the extra homes on Burke Mountain.

I agree totally with Coun. Brad West that the “stalemate needs to be broken.”

Good luck to the city of PoCo as it tries to work out a solution.
