Who is known as the father of Manitoba?

Sir Wilfrid Laurier
Sir George-Étienne Cartier
Donald Smith
Louis Riel

The correct answer is: Louis Riel

Louis Riel is known as the father of Manitoba because he played a significant role in the formation of the Province of Manitoba. Riel led and negotiated on behalf of the Métis people during the Red River Resistance, which resulted in the formation of Manitoba as a province in 1870. Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Sir George-Étienne Cartier were influential Canadian politicians, but they do not have a direct connection to the creation of Manitoba. Donald Smith, also known as Lord Strathcona, was a prominent Canadian businessman and politician, but he was not involved in the formation of Manitoba.
