Northern Manitoba (also known as NorMan or Nor-Man)^[1]^[2]^[3] is a geographic and cultural region of the Canadian province of Manitoba. Originally encompassing a small square around the Red River Colony, the province was extended north to the 60th parallel in 1912.^[4]^[5] The region's specific boundaries vary, as "northern" communities are considered to share certain social and geographic characteristics, regardless of latitude.
