Dawydiak91Ƶs cousin and her 16-year-old son are currently attempting to flee across the border into Poland, Watts said, in an attempt to bring the teenager to the White Rock-South Surrey area.

91ƵIt91Ƶs an absolute nightmare situation. We wanted to do something, anything to help,91Ƶ said Watts.

Twenty per cent of all pre-orders will go directly to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation to help provide humanitarian aid to those affected by the war.
