Curriculum may be defined by the province, but each school division has its own collective agreement. So teachers in certain divisions are paid more than others, and in theory that would attract the better teachers. On the flip side, those school divisions would collect more taxes on your property tax bill.
French language schools (French as a primary language) have their own school division across the province. In Winnipeg those schools are in the aforementioned St B/St Vital/St Norbert areas. I believe the school division portion of the students parents property tax bill is remitted to the province wide division rather than their home school division.
But yeah, French immersion is offered across the city. I would assume the higher funded school divisions would have the better French immersion programs, but would also have higher taxes.
