Winnipeg's food bank says it has a critical need for food donations due to a big influx of newcomers to the city, including Syrian refugees.
Winnipeg Harvest is asking people for more donations to help meet demand.
The non-profit charity says it needs canned beans, including chick peas and lentils, canned soup, canned fruit and vegetables, and rice.
The organization says the influx of Syrian refugees to Winnipeg in addition to their current clients has caused the urgent food shortage.
The food bank says it also accepts monetary donations.
