Melita, Manitoba was dubbed the “Banana Belt” as it has slightly warmer temperatures than the rest of Manitoba. No bananas are grown in Canada but they have been grown in Iceland. You can look it up.
I have zero interest in stopping to see the world’s biggest dragonfly, Easter egg, or whatever when I am passing through some town. This however was odd enough that I could not help but stop. A large banana on the prairie was too appealing.
Manitobans are not without humour.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Rather a surprise to see such a thing in the prairies.
