The name Manitoba is believed to have originated with Cree term “Man-into-wahpaow”, meaning “the narrows of the Great Spirit”, which describes Lake Manitoba and how it narrows significantly at the centre. The province entered confederation in 1870 following the Manitoba Act. Sir John A. Macdonald announced that the province’s name, suggested by Métis leader Louis Riel, was selected for its pleasant sound and its associations with the original inhabitants of the area.

Louis-Philippe at the Winnipeg Public Library sent us this list of census disrtricts saying there’s been no counties in Manitoba since 1890:

What are the three geographic regions of Manitoba?

Interlake-Eastern health region — comprising the geographic regions of Interlake and North Eastman; Northern Health health region — comprising the geographic region of Northern Manitoba (excluding Churchill) Prairie Mountain health region — comprising southwestern Manitoba, including the geographic regions of Westman and Parkland

Manitoba’s Interlake is a region that lies roughly between Lake Winnipeg and Lake Manitoba in the Canadian province of Manitoba. The region comprises 14 rural municipalities, one city (the City of Selkirk), six towns (Arborg, Gimli, Riverton, Stonewall, Teulon and Winnipeg Beach) and one village, Dunnottar. The largest population centre in the region is Selkirk. The second largest is the town of Stonewall. The region is divided into three of Statistics Canada‘s census divisions of Canada: Manitoba Census Divisions No. 13, No. 14, and No. 18, which together had a population of 91,743 at the 2016 census. The total land area of the region is 15,855.37 km2 (6,114.85 sq mi).

Argyle, Manitoba, is the small hamlet that is located on the Principal Meridian of Canada, near the middle of the Interlake Region. Sandy Hook is located between Winnipeg Beach and Gimli, a popular summer vacation spot.
