What's a barbed broadhead?
When the angle between the back of the blade and the arrow shaft is less the 90 degrees.

This is NY

Barbed Broadheads
[/align]Barbed broadheads are illegal for hunting big game. A barbed broadhead is one in which the angle formed between the trailing or rear edge of any blade and the shaft is less than 90 degrees. Broadhead examples on the right compare one that is barbed to three that are legal. Broadheads with retractable blades are legal. Broadheads with mechanical blades are legal if the blades DO NOT form a barb or hook when the arrow is pulled from the flesh of a deer or bear.

So the Smoke BH's would be considered barbed, correct?

Yes they do.

Oh and to answer the original question. Manitoba doesn't have any regulations like that.
