Manitoba

Manitoba is a province of central Canada, with Winnipeg as its capital. It was created in 1870 from part of Rupert's Land after the Red River Resistance led by Louis Riel, whose provisional government negotiated its entry into Confederation, and was enlarged northwards to Hudson Bay in 1912.
