Numerous Weather Network viewers have contacted the station over the years, wondering why their on-air personalities are always standing in front of Manitoba during national weather forecasts. It all boils down to location. When the on-air presenters are in front of the greenscreen and explaining the weather on a national scale, Manitoba is situated in the centre -- which is where they tend to stand. When they're in front of the smaller, active weather set in the newsroom, Manitoba is on the right, which is also where they usually stand. Are you from Manitoba, or have you ever visited Manitoba?

If you ask most Canadians, which province is the least desirable to live in, most will usually put Manitoba at the top of that list.

Here are just a few things that make Manitoba wonderful -- how many of these reasons would persuade you to perhaps visit this great province?
