Manitoba is divided into Service Areas, each with an Area Commissioner and (ideally) with a service team.
The current Service Areas are:

Within each area are groups — made up of one or more sections (Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Venturers, Rovers) a group will have at least a Group Commissioner and may also have a group administrator, secretary, treasurer, registrar and quartermaster. This structure follows the Scouts Canada Standard.[citation needed]
