Etymology-wise, Manitoba means 'The Great Spirit', maybe something on that

History-wise, the first European to visit Manitoba was Sir Thomas Button, so maybe Manitoba Buttons?

Hope I could help

Suggestions are welcomed... I had the Bombers down for Winnipeg, but I like the fur trade and the Great Spirit references... I will look into those and see what I come up with... Thanks
