Business Detail
Churchill (2006 Population 923) is a town on the shore of Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada, situated at the estuary of the Churchill River at Hudson Bay.It is most famous for the many polar bears that move toward the shore from inland in the autumn, leading to the nickname "Polar Bear Capital of the World" that has helped its growing tourism industry. Other popular nicknames include "Beluga Capital of the World."
Churchill is a popular spot for ecotourism, as well as for Arctic research. The town also has a health centre, several hotels, tour operators, some restaurants and a shipping marine port with a large grain elevator.
Tourists can safely view polar bears from specially modified buses known as tundra buggies. Use of the buggies helps sustain local tourism, but can also cause damage the local ecology when driven outside the established trails. October and early November are the most feasible times to see the polar bears, hundreds of which wait on the vast peninsula until the water freezes on Hudson Bay so that they can return to hunt their primary food source, ringed seals.
Thousands of beluga whales which move into the warmer waters of the Churchill River estuary during July and August to calf, are a major summer attraction.
Churchill is also a destination for bird watchers from late May until August.[9] Each year, 10,000-12,000 eco-tourists visit, about 400-500 of whom are birders. Birders have recorded more than 270 species within a 25-mile radius of Churchill, including Snowy Owl, Tundra Swan, American Golden-Plover and Gyrfalcon. Plus, more than 100 birds.
About half of the population is Caucasian and the other half are Aboriginal, mostly Chipewyan and Swampy Cree. A minority is composed of Inuit natives. Hunting, trapping and fishing is still an important activity to most of these men; although there are some summer trails, snowmobiles are their main way of transport. The main language is English and several residents also speak Cree language.
The town has a modern multiplex centre housing a public library, hospital, health centre, day care, swimming pool, ice hockey rink, curling rinks, gym, basket ball courts, indoor playground, one cinema and a cafeteria. Nearby is the "Eskimo Museum", with over 850 high quality Inuit carvings on permanent display.
