Use your imagination

 This shape looks like a mitten with a webbed thumb.  
Think of a mitten because northern Manitoba is cold, and think of webbing because it borders the water of Hudson Bay. Mitten Manitoba.
 



 
The provincial flag shows a Union Jack in the left corner, and a shield with a buffalo.  It's not a woman buffalo, it is a Man buffalo.  MAN-itoba
