Manitoba
canadacanadaprovincered ensign
A red ensign flag with the Union Jack in the upper left canton and the provincial shield of arms on the right side. The shield features the red St. George's Cross on the upper portion and a charging bison (buffalo) standing on a rock on the lower portion, representing the province's prairie heritage.
Manitoba's bison on the shield is depicted standing on a rock, symbolizing the rugged terrain of the province. The flag was nearly identical to Ontario's when both were adopted in the 1960s, leading to occasional confusion between the two.
Adopted: 1966
