MANITOBA

       From urban centres to scenic parks and
       subarctic wilderness, Manitoba is the heart
       of Canada. Go to Churchill and paddle
       alongside Beluga whales in summer, walk
       among polar bears in fall and search for the
       elusive dazzling Northern Lights in winter.
       Be charmed by ‘hip and trendy’ Winnipeg,
       Manitoba’s capital, and explore its thriving
       art, food and cultural scene.
