[edit]

Should have either the hyphen (as in French) or the period (as in English), but not both. - Montréalais 03:32, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)

The Saint Boniface Cathedral is not a basilica. The earlier building destroyed by fire in 1968 was designated as a basilica. However, the designation of basilica did not automatically transfer to the new building. njesson 07:25, 6 Feb 2011 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.11.126.96 (talk)

Pierre La Vérendrye

[edit]

Was Pierre La Vérendrye actually buried in the St. Boniface cemetery? Can't find a reference. Maybe just his statue is located there or nearby.-- Kayoty (talk) 06:02, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

First photo

[edit]

Why is this particular photo placed at the head of the article? Perhaps just because it might be the first view of the site a tourist could get from a distance?

Unfortunately it gives - to me anyway - the impression that someone was embarrassed to display what the real St. Boniface Cathedral of today looks like. I admit that it's a great photo of the old façade; it just seems as if it ought to belong under "History" or "Gallery" or whatever. TooManyFingers (talk) 21:24, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
