Province of Manitoba Profile:

Cultural Diversity

Manitoba is a unique and vibrant blend of many heritages which we celebrate in a myriad of ethnic festivals and events. As one of the most ethnically diverse provinces in Canada, Manitoba continues to be a destination for new immigrants, who consistently enrich our multicultural fabric. Today, more than 100 languages are spoken across the province, as Manitobans proudly maintain the traditions of their ancestors. This diverse resource assists Manitoba's entry into new global markets and helps to promote the province as a preferred immigration destination around the world. As we approach the 21st century, immigration and multiculturalism are recognized as vital to our continuing growth and development. The Province's Citizenship and Multiculturalism activities include programs, services, policies and legislation. Immigration recruitment abroad and settlement services within Manitoba help to attract more newcomers every year to help them make their home in our multicultural community.
