Consider the CBC Manitoba building the north pole as we are the first (and best) spot to watch the Winnipeg Santa Claus Parade. Arrive early for a prime Santa-spotting seat on our bleachers. Santa's jolly helpers, Janet Stewart and John Sauder, will play a few reindeer games and give away some goodies from Santa's swag bag. 
We'll have noisemakers, mitts, and a few surprises, oh my!
