A visit to Winnipeg, Manitoba in August....it's changed a lot since I lived there in the 70's.

The Provencher Bridge is across the Red River linking downtown Winnipeg with St. Boniface, a community across the Red River. The Provencher Bridge derived its name from the connecting Provencher Boulevard.






St. Boniface Cathedral



The original cathedral, built in 1908, was destroyed by fire in 1968. The remaining walls were incorporated into the design of the new church, creating a dramatic facade facing west across the Red River towards downtown Winnipeg.
