One draw is in the books after opening day play at the 54th Canadian Firefighters Curling Championships in Saint John NB, with the 4-time PEI champions from the Summerside Fire Dept., skipped by Gordon MacFadyen, losing their opener by a 9-5 score to Jeff Zechner and his Northern Ontario team, who are the defending champions.  A four-point fourth end gave the Zechner squad an early 6-1 lead in the game.
