Manitoba, one of Canada's Prairie Provinces, joined the Canadian Confederation in July of 1870 and is served by the capital city of Winnipeg. It was originally known as the "postage stamp province" because it was square shaped and only 1/8 its current size. Manitoba has more than 110,000 lakes within the province as well as many uninhabited islands. Much of Manitoba's economy relies on tourism, energy, agriculture, oil, minerals, mining, and forestry.
