Manitoba to wear a proud new provincial tartan
Manitoba plans an official tartan designed by Hugh Rankine to honor the Selkirk era and Red River trade. The tartan symbolizes Manitoba’s rich farmlands forests and resources with blue lines for the Red River and Assiniboine junction and maroon squares, to be available to all residents. The bill ratifies Rankine government control but forbids monopolies in production.
