Winnipeg Theatres says that this house opened around 1910 as the Columbia Theatre, and became the Fox in 1935. I found an article about the Columbia Theatre in the April 6, 1912, issue of Electrical Review and Western Electrician, which noted that the house was the latest movie theater to be opened in Winnipeg (page 663 of the Google Books scan.)
Reopened as Fox on November 24th, 1934. Grand opening ad with interior picture of inferior quality posted.
