I posted your question on a Canada centric email list. The gurus there had the following discussion.

Sounds like 21232 in Woodhaven Park in the St James area of Winnipeg. It's in "Golden Centennaires" colours, but it was never one of the team's aircraft. It was s/o/s on 9 May 1967. The info I have is that it
went to the City of Winnipeg in 1990, but the date is unconfirmed and
that probably only applies to actual ownership, not necessarily its
location. I saw it there in 1992.

Sounds reasonable!! As far as I know, there are only the two T-Birds mounted in Winnipeg....this one and the one at the No. 1 Canadian Air Division Air Park. WCAM also have a T-33.
As I recall (vaguely) there was some controversy within the group several
years back that this one in Centennaires colours may NOT be painted with its true s/n. Is that right, or am I thinking of a different aircraft somewhere else?? It probably came up when we were beating the T-Bird topic to death and had a list of the aircraft distributed by Northwest Industries to various museums, Legions, Air Force Association Wings, pedestals, etc.

It is still there, colours starting to fade. I see it every time I go to the Peg and in fact will be driving by it tomorrow.
