FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — The Canadian Grind will be selling poppy donuts to raise funds for the Fort St. John Royal Canadian Legion.
The cafe started the poppy donut campaign for the legion in 2020 as they were not allowed to hand out poppies due to public health guidelines and regulations.
The Canadian Grind raised $5,000 in 2020, $9,000 in 2021 and $4,000 in 2022.
