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.
