 Manitoba on Encyclopedia.com
Manitoba has alternated politically between socialist (New Democratic party) and conservative (Progressive Conservative party) governments since the 1950s.
Manitoba was explored and posts were established by the French as well as by the British; their rival claims were resolved when England's conquest of Canada in the French and Indian Wars was confirmed by the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
Conservatives regained control of the government in 1989 under Gary Filmon, who held office until he was defeated by the New Democrat Gary Doer (in the fourth race between the two leaders) in 1999.

"Queen approves Manitoba Flag," an information sheet from the Department of the Provincial Secretary, (October 8, 1965).
Yet it was widely anticipated that Canada would have a new flag by the end of the year, which would, of course, then replace the Red Ensign and present children with the confusion of three different, supposedly national, flags within a period of about ten months.
This was clearly intended as statement in support of the Ensign as a national flag, but the move was quickly denounced as not only petty but expensive.
