Specialized put CF forks on their Tricross which would be my guess. Not sure of the year. Probably around 2010 or so.
That fork looks like it fits well with that frame. Lots of tire clearance, and matching front and rear cantis.
If the Felt Verza is actually a modern 10-speed with disc brakes for $300 Canadian, that would likely be a very good deal.

Keep in mind, vintage 10-speed bikes and modern 10-speed bikes count the gears differently.
In the past, they multiplied the front and rear sprockets together, so 5 rear x 2 front = 10 speeds. 6 rear x 3 front = 18 speeds.
On modern bikes, they simply count the rear sprockets (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, or perhaps 14). Then simply report whether the front is 1x, double, or triple.
