Center Of Canada

Canada / Manitoba / Springfield /
This is the exact location of the longitudinal center of Canada. To the south, the town of Landmark represents the only town lying upon this axis. If you drive by this point on the #1 highway, you will see a sign to this effect also.

  • Geee, I think maybe you're just a tad south of the mark LOL. Did you know that Canada has a fair amount of longitudinal direction, as well? Take your mark, go north, probably near the Nun-Man border. There's the middle center of Canada.
  • cool I have family there
  • Danno, the article is referencing the "longitudinal" centre of Canada. You're referring to the "geographical" centre.
