A year later, smallpox would claim another 100 of the additional 1200 settlers who joined their countrymen on the Manitoba frontier.

These are the memories of a world at war. A WWII Corvette Rises in a heavy sea. It was during these tumultuous times that so many young prairie men from towns like Carmen, Portage, The Pas and Dauphin went out to join the navy. Nobody could predict the connection between the flat prairies and a call to the sea, but once the war was over it was undeniable. Many Manitobans served their country through naval service. The goal of the Naval Museum of Manitoba is to promote the history of Canada's Navy, especially as it pertains to those Manitobans who have served with the Navy. The Naval Museum captures a moment in history, remembering the lifestyle, sense of duty and patriotism of Canadian sailors during times of peace and war. In creating this archive, many Manitobans have served their community by donating artifacts, time and energy to a successful effort.

Enable JavaScript in Browser to View Menus - See Navigation Links at bottom Information HISTORY The Association of Community Theatres of Manitoba (ACT) Inc . had its beginnings in the Fall of 1976. At that time, several active theatre patrons perceived the need for a Community Theatre Festival program. This program was sponsored by the Manitoba Theatre Workshop (now Prairie Theatre Exchange) and supported in its development by the appointment of a Director of the Outreach Program to the Festival Advisory Board. In 1978-1979, the Community Theatre Festival was realized. In 1982, the Board changed its name to The Association of Community Theatres of Manitoba Inc. to encompass the growing scope of the program from a local, to that of a provincial organization. December of 1987, however, found the Association with a depleted executive and eroded rural participation. It was then that a steering committee was formed and a new executive was elected in February of 1988. The new executive acted quickly and in the 1988-89 term initiated new memberships, appointed regional representatives in all regions and co-ordinated Regional Workshops. This began the renewal of the Association's relationship with community theatre groups. ACT is now a strong, non-profit organization that represents amateur theatre groups throughout the province, and actively pursues the goals and objectives outlined in the Association's mandate. Since 1991, ACT has been a registered charity with the Province of Manitoba.

Churchill Reminiscence Shared Memories and Photos of Life in Churchill (a reunion page for former residents) Two Boys, Two Snowmobiles, and a Polar Bear (a story of adventure) Between 1966 and 1970 (age 7-11 for me) we lived in Churchill, Manitoba. It's north of the 58th parallel, baby, and the Polar Bear Capitol of the World! At the tender age of 10, I set out with a friend one fine day for a recreational ride, each of us on a yellow (now antique) Bombardier Skidoo. We each had the use of one and, as odd as it might sound, there was not much difference between two kids on their skidoos in Churchill and two kids on their bikes in an LA suburb. Except, we'd be the ones wearing parkas and mukluks. We were just riding along when I heard a snort from behind a small rise and suddenly I found myself 40-50 feet from a very big, confused, and slightly perturbed mama bear (we saw one cub, there were probably two). For those who don't know, the largest recorded weight bears have been polar bears. I know, I know, grizzlies and browns get more attention but a full-grown polar bear standing up 50 feet away with a sneer on its face can have your wee tookie going 10 cents - 50 cents - 10 cents - 50 cents before it really registers how much trouble you're in. And, believe me, I was in it deep. Let me pause to say that every year 2-3 people were mauled and killed by polar bears while I lived in Churchill. My Mom was a nurse so I got to hear, in full colour detail, the true delights of having a 1500-pound bear chew your head off. Let me assure you that the dangers of polar bears is one thing that every child in Churchill simply had to learn very, very quickly and the thought of being a "noggin nibbly" for mama bear, well ... you get the picture ... I had to be on my way.

Topics YPM Inc. The Mace Coat of Arms Senate ... WCYP In the Beginning (1922 to 1970) In 1922, George Stewart, Lieutenant-Governor of the Youth Parliament of Manitoba and North Western Ontario, opened the first of what was to become a long line of annual sessions devoted to the development of leadership and awareness of the Parliamentary system of Government among the young men of Manitoba. Since then, it has become one of the oldest Youth Parliament in a network of similar organizations stretching from one end of the country to the other. Although each of these Parliaments has a unique style and emphasis, all are based on the same principles of that first session of 1922. Changing Times (1971 to 1984) This however, was not the most important change Parliament underwent at this time. On December 28, 1972, a special meeting of the Youth Parliament decided to admit women as full members and to change the name to the Youth Parliament of Manitoba. Previously, female members had only been Associate members, and therefore could not vote on the issues discussed. Seven years later, Ann Thompson, became the first female Premier and one-year after that, the first female Speaker of the Youth Parliament of Manitoba.

Topics YPM Inc. The Mace Coat of Arms Senate WCYP The Mace In the British and Canadian Parliament systems the mace is the direct link to the monarchy. It is a powerful reminder, not only of the authority of the Crown, but also of the respect the Crown accords the will of the people. This principle of democracy and the power of compromise which all Youth Parliamentarians experiences in some form at Youth Parliament of Manitoba. The mace is made of maple wood to represent the importance of the maple tree and the maple as Canadian symbols. Today the mace is used at the Annual Session of the Youth Parliament of Manitoba to act as our direct link to the monarchy.

Click Below to go Direct to Area of Interest History Statistics Commerce Other Steinbach History 1894-1990 S teinbach, Manitoba was founded in 1874 by 18 Mennonite families of the Kleine Gemeinde, literally meaning "Small Fellowship". The Mennonite faith originated in 1525 as part of the European Reformation. From Holland, Mennonites immigrated to Prussia and from there to southern Russia where Molotschna (or Milk River) Colony was established in 1804. T he Kleine Gemeinde was started here in 1812 by Klass E. Reimer (1770-1837) as a reform movement. Although only a small minority in the Molotschna, this denomination quickly became known for it’s practise of the New Testament teachings of nonresistance, community of sharing, and the publication of the first Anbaptist inspirational books. Its farmers were known as being among the best in the Molotschna Colony, which had become a model for all of Russia. T he Steinbach settlers were late arrivals in the fall of 1874. Most of the better land had already been occupied by the 400 Berthaler and other Kleine Gemeinde families and therefore they chose the present site in the south-east corner of the settled area of the East Reserve (now R.M. of Hanover). The 20 homesteads were laid out on the north-east side of the present day Main Street along the Steinbach Creek. S piritual leadership was provided by Rev. Jacob M. Barkman (1824-1875) whose tragic death by drowning in the Red River in 1875, together with his fellow pioneer Jakob K. Friesen (1822-1875), shocked the community. A school was established the very first fall and a school house and teacherage were constructed in 1875. Among the Steinbach pioneers were Kornelius Fast (1840-1927) and Gerhard S. Kornelsen (1816-1894), both experienced and qualified teachers from the old country. An important church event, was the establishment of the Church of God in Christ Mennonite (Holdeman) in 1882. Pioneer Wilhelm T. Giesbrecht (1846-1917) was elected a minister of this group in 1884, and served for many years as an itinerant preacher and evangelist.

AF - Manitoba Founded in 1915, the Alliance Française du Manitoba is an independent non-profit organization , registered in 1980 as a language shool,under a charitable organization number. The first meetings took place in 1902 with the creation of a French literary circle attended by Mme Moreau de Bauvière and presided over by Professeur Osborne, who later became the first President of the Alliance Française du Manitoba. The actual founding of the school took place on the 29th of October, 1915, at the University of Manitoba's French department. The AF's purpose is the diffusion of French Language and of francophone culture. Its cultural and linguistic policies are defined by the Board of Directors. The director, who is a French civil servant at the disposal of the association, ensures the implementation of these policies. The Alliance Française du Manitoba has developped and evolved since its first meetings were held at the University in 1915. An important turning point was passed when it officially became a language school thanks to courageous volunteers... in 1984, the French government sent a civil servant to run the school's daily activities. The school had to move locations for more space until it finally reached it's present premises in 1993 in the house located at 934 Corydon Ave. other AF info home

Dr. Max Desmarais President John Higham Vice President Bert Bristow Vice President Dr. Hugh Tayler Secretary Clark Popham Treasurer Dr. Richard Johnstone Director S.E. Region Graham Lount Director S.E. Region Forbes Carter Director N.E. Region Tammas Scott Director N.E. Region Jack Yellowlees Director S.W. Region The Association grew quickly during the sixties largely as a result of the growth of the Y-Flyer, the Fireball and the Lightning Class, which were boats that could be easily constructed and trailered by the average person. Hundreds of these boats were built and Winnipeg saw its first sailboat manufacturer start up. The company, Western Sailcraft, started by Dr. Richard Johnstone, built fireballs and Cadets. Later as the demand for all out racing boats ebbed, the Albacore became very popular and was a standard line of the company. Dr. Desmarais continued as President of the Association from 1965 to 1969, until in 1970, the Presidency changed hands, as the MSA developed the custom of electing a new Executive for one or two years terms. It was about that time that Charles Fleming of Coldstream Industries became involved as Secretary/Treasurer, a post which he held until his death in 1975. Mr. Fleming was a long time sailor who took a very active part in organizing the financial and administrative aspects of the MSA. He also donated the Coldstream Cup in recognition of a season of excellence within the MSA.
