Manitoba Equine Clubs and Associations

Manitoba Horse and Riding Clubs

Canadian Fjord Horse Association

On May 1st 1977, our association was born. Through the co-operation of Fjord owners and those interested in the Fjord horse, a form of communication was established between owners of stallions and mares. The Fjord population continues to grow each year. At present they number over 1,000. They can now be found in every province across Canada. Members are using the Fjord horse in dressage, english/western riding, jumping, packing, pulling competitions, walking plough, combined driving, etc. Thus the term general all purpose horse.
