Manitoba's snapshot records 10 facilities, all of them in Winnipeg, holding 51 network presences. Global Server Center is the densest with 27 networks, ahead of LES.NET YWG2 with seven and the Manitoba Hydro Telecom Data Centre with six. One exchange is listed, WPGIX in Winnipeg, with no participants recorded.
Internet exchanges in Manitoba
Exchanges are attributed to the state through the city they sit in, because PeeringDB records a state for facilities but not for exchanges.

What a Manitoba IP address tells you
Every facility in the province's record sits in Winnipeg. Global Server Center holds 27 networks, more than the other nine entries put together, ahead of LES.NET YWG2 with seven and the Manitoba Hydro Telecom Data Centre with six. LES.NET YWG4 has four, and the rest, including Equinix WI1 and Bell MTS Data Centres DC01, carry two networks or fewer. WPGIX is listed in Winnipeg but records no participants, so networks here exchange traffic through arrangements the snapshot does not capture rather than on a local fabric.
A Manitoba IP address reports what the operator registered for the block, not where a device sits. Databases copy the published record for the prefix, so a block registered to a Winnipeg address can cover equipment elsewhere on that operator's network. Bell, Rogers, Telus and Freedom Mobile aggregate subscribers behind regional gateways, so a handset in this province can present an address that resolves to Winnipeg regardless of where it is, or to a gateway registered outside Manitoba.
Read the origin ASN and the netname on the prefix instead of the city label. Bell announces mobile traffic from AS36522 and Telus from AS14663, while Rogers uses AS18475, AS20453 and AS36676, and Freedom Mobile uses AS20365 and AS36273. With 51 network presences in one city and no recorded peering at WPGIX, Manitoba routing depends on transit that terminates outside the province, and the announcing ASN is the clearer signal.

Questions
How many data centres are in Manitoba?
The snapshot lists 10 facilities, all in Winnipeg, holding 51 network presences. Global Server Center is the densest with 27 networks. LES.NET YWG2 has seven, the Manitoba Hydro Telecom Data Centre six and LES.NET YWG4 four, with the remaining entries at two or fewer.
Is there an internet exchange in Manitoba?
WPGIX is listed in Winnipeg, but the snapshot records no participants on it, and the province's peering count is zero. Networks in Manitoba therefore exchange traffic through transit or through fabrics in other provinces rather than meeting locally.
Can I get an IP address in Manitoba?
Placement follows the address an operator registers for the block, not a customer's request. A prefix reads as Manitoba only while its holder publishes a Manitoba record for it. On mobile networks the gateway that carries the session sets what databases report, and those gateways are run regionally.
