7 Wonders of Manitoba Episode 7: Churchill 

I am originally from Brazil, lived in Winnipeg for a year and went on a trip to Churchill to see the Auroras. Unique experience! As a bonus, the extreme temperatures, the flagged-shaped trees, etc.. are just amazing. You clearly see how life tries to strive in such conditions. The entire experience brought a feeling of connection to nature that words can't describe well, one must simply experience it! Go visit Churchill

This video series was fantastic. Please make more videos like these. 👍

Churchill is a Manitoba MUST SEE! We were able to go by train from Thompson. We went in the last spring and were in Zodiacs with the Beluga whales. The zodiacs had underwater microphones so we were able to hear the Belugas. We spent the rest of the day exploring the community and eating. An event we will never forget.

I spent the first 10 years of my life here. I've been back once and would go again

The gift of a lifetime to live here. This place is stunning and inspiring

So much to see at Churchill, hope will visit this place after pandemic

Absolutely loved this series of videos and I now have a few more places to put on my bucket list! Thank you. Please make more videos like this highlighting amazing places to visit in Manitoba!

Would love to go back to this fantastic community.

Im writing a story where the town is based off Churchill. Fictional town in Northern Manitoba. My God is it beautiful up there.

I use to live in Churchill for work. Amazing place to visit and see. So much history

So beautiful! The Northern Lights is a sight to behold!

This series is fantastic, thx you I had no Idea Manitoba was so beautiful

Great look at Churchill, can't wait to reschedule a cancelled trip to see it all!

I believe Aurora season is now the second biggest for tourist draw (at least before COVID) after Bear season. So contrary to the rather bleak picture the video presents, lots of people do choose to visit in the dead of winter! Or will again we hope, once travel opens up.

Wow beautiful wow

I took the train to Churchill many years ago and was surprised to see a huge line of people waiting for the Liquor store to open. Yes really nice place.

Wonderful documentary 👏

This was just simple amazing… thank you.

The top wonder is that anybody lives there at all.

Had the blessing of visiting Churchill, in fact, I worked here. Must see !

I lived there as an early teen teen from 1964-1967. Very nostalgic and as spectacular as it sounds. They didn't even mention the American presence. They had a rocket range nearby which was to "explore the aurora" but secretly they were watching out for nukes headed towards them from Russia and we found out later they also developed the technology for chaff, the aluminum chips fighter jets throw out behind them to confuse incoming, radar guided missiles. Nearby Fort Churchill also had the longest runway in North America so big bombers could land and take off from there. It was all hush hush.

Goosebumps

Interesting video series and I have visited Churchill a number of times and stayed out at the Rocket Range (Studies Centre). Minor suggestion - keep the music volume a bit lower so we can hear the excellent narrator.....

I'm a big polar bear fanatic.

Home for over 30 years..❤

I lived in Fort Churchill in 1970 till 1971 May...went to Hearne Hall grade 8 there...my Mom was a Foster Mother...

Excellent content

Lived in Churchill for 23 most enjoyable years and still miss the place

Very nice video

When the Northern Lights get lower they give off a sound from their energy that is created. The Older People used to say that if you whistled at them they would come down and chase you. A lot of the Indigenous people believed this and were scared of the Northern Lights.

6:56 Skyrim night starts playing

Must watch video.

Shoutout to anyone in Ms. Salisbury's class

I wish it wasn't so expensive to go to Churchill.

LOvely Video

It might be nice to swim in now! 😀

Would love to see drone footage of the Fort Churchill, we were in I row when J and K row of pmqs was starting to be closed...used to shop at the Commisary and go by bus to Town to shop at the Hudson Bay Store...

I saw only a fraction of THE NORTHERN LIGHTS from my backyard in Winnipeg in 1979. That was the last time.

Remind me of 21 yrs ago I was there for the Polar Bear, just unfortunately nothing can be seen but a few kilometres away……….

Nice film. Just wondering why they not mentioned the star fort nearby the town. Probably because nobody knows who built it........

Minus 60 Celsius eh? I was in Yellowknife back in 2018 for a couple nights. It was in August. My taxi driver told me that it only gets down to minus 50 Celsius there. But for longer than it does in Red Deer, Alberta.

I likely never go...I been as far north to Lynn Lake, Manitoba.

🖤

Looks amazing but how long would you need to stay to see the borealis?

What are the other 6 sites? I would visit Manitoba after watching this if I knew what the other 6 are. I can not find them.

If your main source of income in your city is polar bear sightings then I think thats a hint lol.

They do ever get really cold up there in churchill?

Wow, this video is spectacular. Can someone let me know what months specifically to view the Aurora lights, polar bears and beluga whales? I believe the whales are July - August?

Is there a bar?

Oh, Churchill! You mean the most major of the communities not considered important enough to be granted access to infrastructure by the Province of Manitoba? Another example of how Manitoba enjoys the benefits of Federal transfer payments without actually following its most important contingencies.....access to a guaranteed livelihood. If you are cut off from the rest of Canada but remain in isolated area's to maintain Canada's claim to the land, you are being denied your right to ease toward gaining and maintaining a livelihood which is one of our primary rights. Being offered the opportunity to move from your home to escape a lack of access is technically an illegal proposition for our Provincial Government to insist. Look it up. If our majority wants this quality of life then Manitoba should succede from Canada and pay people like me a settlement to cover departure back to our country of origin. Canada.

I prefer to stay in Southern California

I feel bad for the crows and ravens up there…
