Prawda is an unincorporated community in the Rural Municipality of Reynolds, situated a few miles east of Hadashville on the Trans Canada Highway in eastern Manitoba. The population of this community is 200.
The area was settled by Ukrainian, Polish, and Russian settlers starting about 1907. By 1932, there was a post office opened which operated until 1969. The community's name comes from the Polish word prawda, which means 'truth'.[1] The name may have come from Evangeline Andrusko, the postmistress who named the post office after a town of the same name in her native Poland.
