Winnipeg South (provincial Electoral District)
Winnipeg South was a provincial electoral division in Manitoba, Canada, which existed on two separate occasions.
It was initially created for the 1883 provincial election, and abolished with the 1920 election when Winnipeg became a single ten-member constituency. It was re-established for the elections of 1949 and 1953 as a four-member constituency, and was divided into several single-member constituencies in 1958.

“History in the making is a very uncertain thing. It might be better to wait till the South American republic has got through with its twenty-fifth revolution before reading much about it. When it is over, some one whose business it is, will be sure to give you in a digested form all that it concerns you to know, and save you trouble, confusion, and time. If you will follow this plan, you will be surprised to find how new and fresh your interest in what you read will become.”
—Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)
“Nothing is more unreliable than the populace, nothing more obscure than human intentions, nothing more deceptive than the whole electoral system.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
