Saskatchewan and Manitoba

Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan, one of the Prairie Provinces, is also one of the farming provinces. Regina its capital is home to the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police, yes, those guys on horseback!). The city offers many fine restaurants, museums, and shopping. While there, you may want to visit the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, The Saskatchewan Science Center or the IMAX theatre with its five story screen. Most of Canada’s grain supply comes from Saskatchewan and the province produces many of Canada’s comfort foods, delicious breads and pastas. Don’t miss out on tasting the famous Saskatoon berry!

Manitoba
Manitoba, another of Canada’s Prairie Provinces, is located next to Saskatchewan. While in Manitoba, you may want to visit Winnipeg but if you go in winter, be sure to dress warmly as Winnipeg boasts of the coldest winters in Canada! Winnipeg also boasts a thriving arts community from ballet to thatre to symphony. In Winnipeg, take a walk along The Forks which are located where the Red River and Assinboine River meet. After your walk along the river, tempt your palate with dinner at one of the many fine restaurants located at the entrance to the area. Some of the food that is special to Manitoba includes Northern Pike, Bison, Elk and even Ostrich Meat. Lean Bison is raised on farms in Manitoba and is quite an experience in taste. Also, have some honey with your tea! The bee farm industry in Manitoba (there are more than 750 honey farmers) produces some of the finest honey in the world.
