What hasn’t changed…\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are still plenty of things that haven’t changed that are enduring in a Saint-Boniface summer. You can walk along the Great Trail that runs alongside the river on Tach\u00e9 Ave, just in time to see one of those magical prairie sunsets over the Red River and the Esplanade Riel.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can bring a picnic to Whittier Park or Provencher Park and enjoy the grass beneath your feet. You can explore the ruins of the Cathedral and go see Louis Riel’s grave in the Cathedral cemetery.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

And you can also go see the documentary\u00a0<\/strong>At the Heart of Manitoba’s Francophone Community\u00a0<\/strong><\/i>which is shown for free every day at 219 Provencher Blvd at 9:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. Make your reservation by calling 204-233-8343 because spots are limited.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
