Sees: Archdiocese of Winnipeg (directly subject to the Holy See), Archdiocese of Keewatin-Le Pas, Archdiocese of Saint Boniface (not a metropolitan see), Seat of and part of the Diocese of Churchill-Hudson Bay (which lies mostly in the North-West Territories and partly in Saskatchewan).

Traditional Latin Masses: At present, there are no approved traditional Latin Masses anywhere in Manitoba. However, Winnipeg is the seat of the Ukrainian Metropolitan Archeparchy and there are Ukrainian Byzantine masses at various locations. More information about these will be posted in the future.

In 2000, Archbishop Wall of Winnipeg retired and was replaced by the former Bishop of Saskatoon, who has been most supportive of the Indult Mass.  In the same year, Archbishop Hacault of St. Boniface died at the age of 74.  He has yet to be replaced (July, 2000).  These two developments could result in the restoration of the traditional Mass in Manitoba, especially at or near Winnipeg.
