The next three coins in the series are Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. Manitoba became Canada's fifth province when it entered Confederation in 1870. The current boundaries were finalized in 1912. Saskatchewan joined Confederation along with Alberta in 1905, when the two new provinces were carved out of the Northwest Territories (NWT).

While the Prairies are now home to some of Canada's biggest cities, rural life remains an important part of the region's identity. At a time when more and more Canadians live exclusively in downtown apartments and earn a living sitting in front of computers, the Prairies are a place where farming, mining, and oil still generate a livelihood for many, and traditional-minded folk live in small, pioneer-founded communities separated by vast fields and open skies.
