Which option is NOT a Manitoba survey system?

• A. River Lot System (Parish Lot System)
• B. Township or Grid System
• C. Plan of Subdivision
• D. Cadastral Plan System

Answer: (D)

Manitoba’s land description has traditionally relied on three main survey approaches: the River Lot System (also called Parish Lot System), used along the Red River for early settlements; the Township or Grid System, which follows the Dominion Land Survey layout of townships and sections across the province; and the Plan of Subdivision, which records how a larger parcel is divided into lots and blocks on a surveyed map. The term Cadastral Plan System isn’t recognized as a separate Manitoba survey method; cadastral plans exist to document parcel boundaries, but they’re not a distinct traditional survey system on their own. Therefore, the option describing a Cadastral Plan System is not a Manitoba survey system.
