Otterburne

Otterburne is a small settlement in the Rural Municipality of De Salaberry, Manitoba, located about 50 kilometers south of Winnipeg, in Canada.

It is named after Otterburn, Northumberland in England,[1] and is the location of Providence University College and Theological Seminary.

On 30 July 2005, a windstorm reaching speeds of over 150 km/h ripped through the Otterburne area, destroying trees, damaging buildings, and picking up irrigation wheels which weighed over 15 tonnes.
