Default Big Things
Like other Provinces and I'm sure in communities near you, there are big monuments for tourist attractions. Here are a few in Manitoba.

Big Things in Manitoba



Village of St. Francois Xavier - The White Horse

It honours a tragic native legend of a beautiful Assiniboine woman and her Cree bridegroom who were pursued by her rejected Sioux suitor.

The region is called the White Horse Plain

I see your "BIG" Manitoba and raise you one "Big" BC as well as this dude



MR. PG was at one time made of wood, until two drunken loggers cut him down. He is now made out aluminum painted to look like wood.

Special Note: His head is a septic tank...this is what welcomes tourists to our city.

I hate it here

Maybe next summer. It is the time I am lacking and I can't stand having a bike with no time to ride.
