The words of wisdom graffitied onto these washroom walls certainly didn’t disappoint.

Take a tour of the town’s attractions, pubs & toilets, and you’ll even get to meet Woodie, a true Aussie character!
VIDEO: Toilography visits Assiniboine Park
Posted: June 3, 2018 Filed under: Canadian Toilets, Manitoba, Outdoors, Toilet videos Leave a commentDan from Toilography went to Assiniboine Park in Winnipeg and saw these funky shipping container toilets, as well as a statue of a rather famous bear named Winnie. Take a look at the video here:
The park’s washrooms were constructed in 2013 and have even picked up a couple of design awards in the years that followed. I was definitely glad to have had the chance to come here!
Composting toilet at MEC
Posted: May 21, 2018 Filed under: Canadian Toilets, Composting Toilets, Manitoba, Toilets at Shops Leave a commentIt might not be the most interesting loo to look at, but it’s a pretty cool concept. MEC in downtown Winnipeg has a composting toilet on their second floor, the contents of which is collected in the floor below and used as fertilizer.
I’ve since found out MEC has a Green Buildings initiative, of which the Winnipeg outlet was the first retail building in the country to comply with a national standard of reducing energy consumption by 50%. The composting toilet is of course part of this initiative. Good stuff!!
HBC Winnipeg
Posted: May 21, 2018 Filed under: Canadian Toilets, Manitoba, Toilets at Shops Leave a commentIt had been mentioned on Reddit that the restroom at Hudsons Bay in downtown Winnipeg hadn’t been renovated for a very long time. The toilet fixtures themselves were modern but the room in general had a wonderful early 20th century feel to it. I wonder how much of the room is still original to its 1926 opening?
The Cavern
Posted: May 20, 2018 Filed under: Canadian Toilets, Dive Bars, Manitoba, Urinals Leave a commentI came to the sister venue, Toad In The Hole, the day before but the downstairs Cavern bar was closed. I was pretty keen to check out their free open mic comedy night though so I returned and wasn’t disappointed with their divey downstairs dunnies.
Note the hole in the wall on the left:
