Dubbed the world’s largest kitchen party, the Festival du voyageur honours the traveler’s spirit of the founders of Manitoba’s French-Canadian community. Maurice Buisson’s family has helped organize the event for three generations. For Mr. Buisson, it is very important to transmit culinary traditions to his children and grandchildren, who also volunteer at the festival and “learn about life”.
