Happy Manitoba Day! The Manitoba Act, which created the Province of Manitoba, was given royal assent on May 12, 1870. Then, on May 12, 1966, Manitoba’s official flag was dedicated and raised for the first time. In 1986, May 12 was designated as #ManitobaDay.

We couldn’t be prouder of our Hockey Academy students! It was great to see them play, and it’s evident that they have worked hard all season.
