Westgate, Manitoba
Westgate is a northern community in the province of Manitoba, Canada. It is located approximately south of Flin Flon near Manitoba's boundary with Saskatchewan. Westgate was originally settled as a logging community along the railroad line. At one point, the population was estimated to be as high as 110 people.
