Government House of Manitoba (French: Résidence du Lieutenant-Gouverneur) is the official residence of the lieutenant governor of Manitoba, and is located in the provincial capital of Winnipeg.[1] It stands in the provincial capital, on the grounds of the Manitoba Legislative Building, at 10 Kennedy Street;[2] unlike other provincial Government Houses in Canada, this gives Manitoba's vice-regal residence a prominent urban setting, though it is surrounded by gardens.
