Oh - I managed to figure this out on my own, its quite simple (told you it 
was a newbie question).

In the template itself (topic.html in my case) I just need to add the 
tables extension to the markdown call.  

Before I used this in the template:
   ...
   $:markdown(response.content)
  ...

Now to turn on the tables extension I need to change that to the following 
in the template:
   ...
   $:markdown(response.content, ['tables'])
  ...
