Who Are The Canfields, The New When Calls The Heart Residents?
Who is the Canfield family? The new residents are a family of four that have just arrived to Hope Valley. The patriarch is Joseph Canfield. He is portrayed by Viv Leacock. Leacock also stars on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries series, the Hailey Dean Mysteries. Joseph wants to buy a gas station in Hope Valley.
Alongside Joseph is his wife Minnie. Natasha Burnett portrays the Canfield matriarch. A mother of two, she is very “protective” of her son and daughter.
Viv Leacock’s real-life children play the two Canfield children. Vienna Leacock plays Angela Canfield. Angela is a visually impaired 12-year-old. A musically gifted child, she plays the piano. Angela has been homeschooled prior to moving to Hope Valley. Now, she is a student in Mrs. Thornton’s (Erin Krakow) class. But, Minnie is unsure of Elizabeth. Can she trust this teacher to educate her daughter?
Elias Leacock portrays the youngest Canfield, Cooper. He is nine-years-old. The description says that Cooper is considered a “wonderful addition” to the schoolroom. He even has an adventure with Elizabeth and Jesse (Aren Buchholz). There are horses and it appears that they are in the forest.
