Front-line staff at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster were egg-static on Thursday. Why? Because they each received chocolate eggs to thank them for all of their hard work during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Front-line staff at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster were egg-static on Thursday.

Why?

Because they each received chocolate eggs to thank them for all of their hard work during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Wesgroup Properties delivered 8,000 Lindt chocolate eggs on the eve of the Easter long weekend.

"In an effort to say thank you and show our appreciation to the hospital staff in our community, we delivered 8,000 chocolate eggs to the Royal Columbian Hospital,” said Ryan Thé, vice-president of development, Wesgroup Properties.

“We understand many front-line workers won’t be able to spend time with their families this Easter long weekend and we hope that this small gesture brings a smile and a reminder that the whole community and Wesgroup Properties is here to support them.”
