Centre of Canada
There are several ways of determining the centre of Canada giving different locations.
Longitude
The Rural Municipality of Taché, Manitoba, east of Winnipeg on the Trans-Canada Highway, has a sign at 96°48'35"W that proclaims it the longitudinal centre of Canada. The sign was upgraded with the opening of Centre of Canada Park in 2017. In effect, it marks the north-south line midway between the extreme points of Canada on the east and west, including islands.Latitude
The latitudinal centre of Canada is a line at 62 degrees 24 minutes North.Intersection of latitude and longitude
The intersection of these two lines is one definition of the centre point of Canada, as explained by the Atlas of Canada's website:The nearest inhabited places to this point are Baker Lake, Nunavut well to the north, and Arviat to the east. A sign that proclaims the point as the geographic centre of Canada was added in 1959.
