Manitoba FREE PRESS


This 389 Main Street building that housed the Manitoba Free Press from 1882 to 1900 no longer stands, with Millennium Centre built to service the Canadian Bank of Commerce in 1910. This architectural gem of Winnipeg's banking district is now a municipally-designated heritage site and event venue.  

Now known as the Winnipeg Free Press, the paper is still published daily (excluding Sundays). 
Seven Oaks House Museum & Ross House Museum sit on Treaty One land:
​The traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg and Ininíwak, the land of the Dakota and the homeland of the Red River Métis.
