Winnipeg's Secret Code
The Manitoba Legislative Building has a hidden code. If you look closely, you’ll find Egyptian sphinxes, the Ark of the Covenant, Greek monsters, cattle skulls, lion heads, and a mysterious black star. The question is: what does it all have to do with Winnipeg?

Recently, Dr. Frank Albo, an architectural historian, has dominated the study of the building’s architecture—he’s spear-headed the theory surrounding a Masonic code. He wrote a book called The Hermetic Code and leads authorized tours of the building. We were not able to find his book in print, nor did we take his tour, but some of his theories are referred to in the episode, found in the plethora of newspaper articles available (many from the Winnipeg Free Press). Some of his views are debated, which was one of the reasons we decided to look at the broader historical context surrounding the building’s construction. But it's all quite interesting regardless! Here’s his website:
It goes without saying that events like the Red River Rebellion and the General Strike deserve episodes of their own—consider this episode as us dipping our toes into the incredibly rich history of Winnipeg and Manitoba as a whole.
We decided to use the architecture as a stepping stone to speak about the historical context surrounding its construction, so we bypassed quite a few other architectural details. Here are a few more:
- The triangular pediment that hangs over the North entrance represents the span of the country: on the east end of the pediment is a nautical wheel, symbolizing the Atlantic; on the west is Neptune's trident, symbolizing the Pacific. In the centre is a goddess representing Manitoba, the keystone province, with a lictor's staves across her knees.
- Normally you’ll only find mention of one Ark of the Covenant (officially the War Chest), but there’s actually two—on the East and West sides. They are chests guarded by a pair of figures: an Indigenous chief and Roman soldier, and a pair of Greek goddesses. No one knows what is inside them. In the Bible, the Ark of the Covenant held the 10 Commandments.
- The Lieutenant-Governor’s Reception Room is reserved for visiting royalty and is closed to the public. We were granted access to shoot this room as well as the Legislative Chamber (from behind a rope barrier) and these shots didn't make it into the video. The L-G Room is essentially the Queen’s office if she’s staying in Winnipeg. There’s a theory that it’s designed with the dimensions of the inner sanctum of King Solomon’s Temple, including a blue curtain that would have shrouded the ‘original’ Ark of the Covenant.
- If you stand in the centre of the star (in the Pool of the Black Star) and whisper, your voice echoes throughout the building by some pretty remarkable acoustics (unfortunately this didn’t translate well to a lav mic).
- Normally the Golden Boy figure is read as being Hermes, the son of Zeus, messenger to the gods. However, it’s more likely Mercury, god of trade and commerce. The wheat in his arm is the fruits of his labour, the torch is a call to the youth toward a prosperous future. He gained his nickname from a local newspaper writer.
- Four groups of statues surround the dome of the building: agriculture, industry, art, and science.
- Most of the building is constructed out of Tyndall stone, limestone native to Manitoba and full of fossils.
A great article detailing how the Panama Canal affected Winnipeg:
There are remnants of the political embezzlement scandal that rocked Winnipeg at the Kelly House apartment block, not far from the MLB. Look for some curious pillars, and read this wonderful article:
Freemasonry isn’t a secretive subject. In the early 1900s it was everywhere, later, it turned into a sort-of boys club. There are a lot of famous freemasons—John A. MacDonald was one—but this episode isn’t so much about the boys club as the tenets that were followed by the movement in the arts.
The quotation in the episode comes from the government committee set-up to organize the contest and pick the winner. They took it from Victorian art critic John Ruskin.
A closing quote from FW Simon, the architect: Here you have no mountains to which you can lift up your hearts. And so you have all the more need for architecture to lift them up. Men and women cannot be happy or good in surroundings that are commonplace, ugly or uninspiring.

Winnipeg & the Hermetic Code Part 1
Part 1 of a series about Winnipeg in Manitoba Canada and how it is built along the principles of the Hermetic Code. Which will also link to other cities in Canada and the USA such as Edmonton, Toronto, Chicago-Springfield (Illinois), Detroit-Lansing (Michigan) as well as others.
This episode focusses on the astronomical connections such as the cornerstone of the Manitoba Legislative Building being laid on the day when Venus and Mercury were aligned in the sky. The alignment of the Oodena Celebration Circle to the Equinoxes and Solstices, as well as it's symbolic and physical alignments to key stars and constellations. Also The Path of Time sculpture-installation and how it tells the story of science-technology via the sun according to the seasons.
The themes and engineered alignemnts being the very same seen elsewhere in cities such as New York. As well as ancient structures such as the Great Pyramid, a perennial theme in this architecture.

Digital tour of Manitoba Legislature, led by Frank Albo
At first glance, the Manitoba legislature looks like a typical government building. But if you look closer, as Dr. Frank Albo did in 2002, you’ll discover a series of seemingly unusual architectural elements. After ten years of painstaking research, Dr. Frank Albo revealed the building to be a cleverly disguised pagan temple, chock full of arcane symbols and ancient clues.
In this virtual tour, the celebrated architectural historian explains some of the most noteworthy aspects of the Manitoba legislative building, including the symbolic front pediment, the grand staircase hall, the golden boy/Hermes statue and the Pool of the Black Star.
Societas Rosicruciana in Canada - Manitoba Legislative Building in Winnipeg Manitoba - Promo
Manitoba's Legislative Building, principal among public buildings in the province, accommodates the legislative assembly, its committees and staff, as well as offices for the ministers and deputy ministers of all government departments. When this building was planned just after the turn of the 20th century, members were unanimous in their desire to build an imposing structure - a symbol of strength and vitality in the capital city, not for present delight nor use alone... but such as our descendants will thank us for.
The rules of the architectural competition announced by the government of Manitoba in 1911 embodied these sentiments. A prize of $10,000 was offered for the best design and architects of the British Empire were invited to participate. Of 67 original submissions, Frank Worthington Simon's design was chosen to be the one most fully expressive of the concepts laid down in the competition.
Excavation began in 1913. By the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, walls were beginning to take shape above the foundation, but a shortage of material, labour and funds delayed construction to such a degree that the building was not ready for partial occupancy until 1919, well after the end of the war. On July 15, 1920, the province's 50th anniversary date, opening ceremonies were performed by Sir James Aikins, then Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba.
The building is a priceless monument that Manitobans would be unlikely to reproduce today, because the craftspeople would be difficult to find and the cost would be prohibitive. The base of the building forms a letter H. The three floors contain an area of approximately 23,225 square metres (250,000 square feet). The top of the dome is 72 metres (240 feet) above ground level. This building is the third used by Manitoba's legislative assembly. The Main Street home of A.G.B. Bannatyne hosted the first assemblies. The second building used stood on the same grounds as the current one.
The exterior walls of Manitoba's Legislative Building and much of the building's interior are Tyndall stone, quarried at Garson, about 20 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg. Renowned for its superb quality as a building material, the stone appears in many of the finest buildings constructed over the past century in North America and beyond. Spectacularly mottled with the fossil records of creatures that lived millions of years ago in a semi-tropical sea, Tyndall stone has a warm, rich look that blends beautifully with many construction materials and designs.

Winnipeg Airport Manitoba Canada
Winnipeg's relatively isolated geographical location in relation to other major population centres[8] makes Winnipeg International Airport the primary airport for a very large area. As such, it is used as a gateway not only to all of Manitoba, but large parts of neighbouring provinces and territories (Saskatchewan, Nunavut, etc.).[9] Daily non-stop flights are operated from Winnipeg International Airport to destinations across Canada as well as to the United States, Mexico, and the Caribbean, along with summer seasonal flights to the United Kingdom. In addition, regularly scheduled flights to numerous small remote communities in the northern regions of Canada, specifically Northern Manitoba, Northwestern Ontario, and Nunavut, are also served from the airport.[10]
History
Edit
The airport opened in 1928 as Stevenson Aerodrome in honour of the noted Manitoba aviator and pioneer bush pilot, Captain Fred J. Stevenson. Stevenson Aerodrome, also known as Stevenson Field, was Canada's first international airport with Northwest Airways (which became Northwest Airlines) inaugurating a passenger and mail service between Winnipeg and Pembina, North Dakota on February 2, 1931.[11] By 1935, Northwest Airlines was operating daily service from the airport with Hamilton H-47 prop aircraft on a routing of Winnipeg - Pembina, ND - Grand Forks, ND - Fargo, ND - Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN - Milwaukee, WI - Chicago, IL.[12] The City of Winnipeg and the Rural Municipality of St. James agreed to develop Stevenson Field as a modern municipal airport in 1936.[13] In 1938 the Manitoba Legislative Assembly passed the St. James-Winnipeg Airport Commission Act creating a commission of the same name with full control over the operation of the airport.[13] In 1940 during the Second World War the Government of Canada placed the airport un

Fix-up looming for historic Manitoba Legislative Building
The Manitoba government says repairs are looming for the historic Legislative Building. The province is preparing to spend $150 million to repair the century-old landmark. Finance Minister Scott Fielding says some maintenance and repairs have been put off for too long, resulting in deteriorating mortar, flashing, masonry and more. (Mar. 15, 2019.)
