Manitoba Day - and St. Ignatius School

Manitoba Day is May 12. It was on May 12, 1870 that the Manitoba Act was passed to make Manitoba a province. Happy Birthday Manitoba!

I was at St. Ignatius School this morning, listening to the students sing and talk about our wonderful province. I also had a chance to read to them (top photo) - and to talk a bit about the different levels of government - provincial, federal and municipal.

Hello to everyone at St. Ignatius School.

In the bottom photo, I am presenting a book to Carol Noonan for the school library.
