Bifrost,_Manitoba
Rural Municipality of Bifrost
Former rural municipality in Manitoba, Canada
The Rural Municipality of Bifrost is a former rural municipality (RM) in the Canadian province of Manitoba.
It was located in Manitoba's Interlake Region along the west shore of Lake Winnipeg. It had a population of about 2,750. Its name comes from the Bifröst in Norse mythology, which is the rainbow bridge connecting Asgard and Midgard (Earth).[1]
Originally incorporated as a rural municipality in 1907,[2] the RM of Bifrost ceased to exist on January 1, 2015, following its provincially mandated amalgamation with the Village of Riverton to form the Municipality of Bifrost – Riverton.[3]
