Following up Sandra's very helpful leads, I see how useful this is
for births/marriages/deaths in British Columbia:
search-collections.royalbcmuseum.bc.ca/Genealogy/KeywordSearch

I'm hoping I can find something almost as good for Manitoba.

Sadly not quite the useful bmd records. Canada has quite strict privacy law. You were lucky in British Columbia to be able to find some BMD records and a vast amount of obituaries.

Manitoba -    Births (more than 100 years ago)
                   Marriages (more than 80 years
                        Deaths (more than 70 years ago)

No I didn't post obit for Vivian Hugh Clarkson.  Hadn't quite worked out his wives.

Pearl is also buried at Elmwood Cemetery  - June 1964
