Crow Wing Settlement Groups

Block Settlements

One of the more interesting aspects of the Crow Wing Study Region is its ethnic diversity. At least five major ethnic groups settled in the region, including Aboriginal, Mennonite, Anglo-Ontario, French, and Ukrainian. Smaller settlements also were established by French Métis, German, and Icelandic settlers. Most of these groups are still well represented in the region, and while acculturation and assimilation
have reduced their original distinctiveness, the multi-ethnic nature of the region is still quite evident. Together with parts of the Interlake Region, this portion of the province likely possessed the most diverse settlement populations of any region in Manitoba.
