The Municipality of Norfolk Treherne is a rural municipality (RM) in the Canadian province of Manitoba.

History

Further information: Rural Municipality of South Norfolk and Treherne, Manitoba

It was incorporated on January 1, 2015, via the amalgamation of the RM of South Norfolk and the Town of Treherne.[1] 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.[2] 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.[3]
