As far as I'm aware, the Stats Canada boundaries are valid to use:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Statistics_Canada_%28StatsCAN%29

I used some in the past in Manitoba, but the boundaries were not
granular enough to reflect towns and smaller areas within Manitoba, so
I ended up using another source.
