In Winnipeg, when we don't already have a name for something, it just defaults to "Riel". Maybe that would work here.

Central West would work too, but anything but midwest, midwestern, even Central is good, I could care less if that referrs to Ontario, they already have a name, and then that would make it quite obvious what area is being reffered to .
