Governor General's Caring Canadian Award


For over 60 years, and in addition to a lifetime of hard work as a farmer, David Grant Campbell has always given generously to his community.

He has improved the local skating arena and, as a member of the Teulon Agricultural Society, he has helped with the annual agricultural fair and pumpkin fest and has led the Teulon 4-H Club. Mr. Campbell's tremendous help and generosity has enhanced the quality of life of many residents in Teulon.
