Port Hardy sits at the very edge of the coastal wilderness where you can hike our rugged trails, walk along our sandy beaches, paddle along the rocky shores of neighbouring islands, go scuba diving, surfing, or get to know the locals, no matter what you choose you will find that exploring Port Hardy connects you with nature in ways you didn’t anticipate.

Rich, rugged and resilient, Port Hardy is the gateway to an authentic, unspoiled, nature-driven adventure. Port Hardy is located on the traditional territory of the Kwakiutl First Nation and home to two neighbouring First Nations bands, the Quatsino and Gwa’sala-‘Nakwaxda’xw, at the Northern tip of Vancouver Island.

Branch 237 has been closed for nearly two weeks due to a lack of volunteers and executive members

05/14/2026

It’s with a heavy heart that we share this news with our community: Royal Canadian Legion Branch 237 doors are now closed.

Like many Legion branches, we are a volunteer-run organization and we rely on community involvement. Over the past while, we have put out calls for volunteers and for Legion members willing to step into executive roles to help share the workload and keep things running. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to put enough capacity in place to continue operating sustainably.

In the coming weeks, the President will be meeting with Command to discuss next steps and the path forward. We’re hopeful these discussions will help identify the best possible options moving forward, and we will share updates as they become available.

The Legion has been a staple in Port Hardy for a long time, and it has meant a great deal to so many - veterans, families, members, and neighbours. We want to say a sincere thank you to everyone who has supported the Legion over the years - whether you volunteered, attended events, donated, sponsored, or simply showed up.

For questions or concerns, please email [email protected].

Had a fun Mother’s Day evening at the Legion Saturday nite. Meat draw winners were all over the room. Our past President won the 50/50! Specialty drinks were amazing thanks to Michelle. Fresh Hot dogs were available and all the ladies received a beautiful long stemmed red rose. A huge fruit basket was raffled off, just for Mother’s Day. ❤️
