As an immigrant you can "land" or do the landing formalities at any port of entry in Canada that has immigration services. If your first port of entry on your flight itinerary is Toronto, then you do the landing formalities there (i.e. activate your PR status by presenting your PR and be examined for admission into the country by a border official).

This is with regards to the intention that you stay a few days in Toronto to see family before going to the final destination (Winnipeg) - this is fine. However, note that in some rare cases, border officials may ask for proof that you are just landing in that PoE enroute to the province where you are settling, so an onward itinerary/ticket to the province of destination may be asked. With your case, keep an the ticket/itinerary for the later Winnipeg flight handy for presentation if asked where do you intend to settle.

I'd say be prepared to provide an address and a contact number where you will be staying as well as the purpose of staying a few days - it has been quite a few years between that post, and there may be changes.
