Rural Municipality of Lakeshore


The Rural Municipality of Lakeshore is a rural municipality in the Canadian province of Manitoba

History

The RM was incorporated on January 1, 2015 via the amalgamation of the RMs of Ochre River and Lawrence. It was formed as a requirement of The Municipal Amalgamations Act, which required that municipalities with a population less than 1,000 amalgamate with one or more neighbouring municipalities by 2015. The Government of Manitoba initiated these amalgamations in order for municipalities to meet the 1997 minimum population requirement of 1,000 to incorporate a municipality.
