Questions fréquentes
What time is it in Winnipeg right now?

What time zone is Winnipeg in?
Winnipeg uses the IANA time zone America/Winnipeg, written as CST in standard time and CDT while daylight saving time is in force. Every time on this page is computed from that zone rather than from a stored offset, so it follows the rules currently published in the time zone database.
