History

As an aside, P la P has an important spot in western fur trade history. La Verendrye founded Fort La Reine as a base for his exploration of the Missouri as a possible route to the western sea. Later the Saskatchewan River route was explored from there. (Stormbay 23:45, 10 March 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Vandalism

This page has been vandalised. I am not sure exactly how to replace it to how it was but I have taken away some of the offencive material that was listed. Canking (talk) 05:11, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rename page

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was move. Mind matrix 21:20, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rename: Portage la Prairie, Manitoba → Portage la Prairie

This is the primary use of the term, and possibly the only use. Per WP:CANSTYLE, the city should have the undisambiguated title, which currently points here anyway. An internet search, excluding Wikipedia mirrors and the terms "rural-municipality" and "Manitoba" givers over 400,000 results, the first 1,000 of which are nonetheless related to the city (several are Industry Canada links about research involving the city, or individual's with photo sets of the city etc.). The rural municipality can retain its current title, and have a link at this page with a simple hatnote. Mind matrix 20:38, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
