Mantago

The Mantagao River flows north into Sturgeon Bay on Lake Winnipeg, through a landscape of forest and low ground near Lake St Martin. Its name appears in several forms, including Mantago, and may derive from a Cree word for a stranger. The river and its mouth are part of the fishing country of the Anishinaabe communities around the Dauphin River and Sturgeon Bay. At its head lies a lake bearing the same name.
