Abandoned Manitoba 2: Kanuchuan, the lost hydroelectric generating station in northern Manitoba

The Abandoned Manitoba 2 video series by Graham Street, Shaun Cameron, and Gordon Goldsborough visits ghost towns, vacant buildings, and other historic sites from Manitoba's past. Join us as we explore back roads to places that tell great stories about how things used to be, and how we have ended up where we are today.

In this video, we travel to a river flowing into Gods Lake where a hydroelectric generating station was built in 1935, the first of kind in northern Manitoba. Along the way, we see abandoned transmission towers and gold mines. We are thwarted in our journey by flood waters but we are able to see the generating station from the air with the help of a small drone.
