What are some negative effects of Manitoba joining Confederation?

Manitoba's entry into Confederation in 1870 had several negative effects, including the marginalization of the Métis population, who felt their rights and land were compromised in favor of Anglo settlers. The imposition of a new legal and political framework often disregarded local customs and governance, leading to social unrest. Additionally, the influx of settlers strained resources and disrupted the traditional way of life for Indigenous peoples in the region. These factors contributed to long-lasting tensions and inequalities that continue to affect the province today.
