About Winnipeg

曾经想搬去那里,并且专程跑了一趟,那是前年春天的事情。- i5 M/ c5 k6 L& {) q/ t3 u

7 k2 M# u1 M& Q- M( T住在一家移民接待站,房东打政府工,1200尺的平房,大学附近,前进双车库,大概只有28万。这样的房子,在我们这里得50-60万了吧。
  Z& t7 p$ Q3 }4 E5 j# Y
' r$ G2 r! A, s1 r( E聊起来,说是春天会发洪水。 Red River从南往北流,好像是美国的一个什么地方,到了春天,雪水就从山上流下来,并夹杂着大冰块,经常堵塞河道。这就是第一句话的由来了。不过,据房东说,市政府另修了一条疏洪渠,应该可以解决洪水泛滥的问题。当时,听到河水是由南往北,由美国往加拿大流,就觉得怪怪的。总觉得水应该是由东往西,由北往南流。, C, L( D$ b: P! v& g$ m

5 c( {  W* s$ p$ }1 l& _4 M至于冬天,没有在那里呆过,只是听人家说起过。好像,温尼泊的冬天,确实厉害。
; k- ]8 G2 U/ M8 o" f. L
: T  ?% w) u9 f$ g% Q; p) o如果看地图,温尼泊在加拿大的中间,所以,做加东还是加西,由你选。$ a7 N9 J. i9 N

2 Z1 d/ g6 J% y, {看房价的话,加拿大从东到西,几个大中城市里面,就她的房价,还比较低了。
. q3 W1 p- }" c& k" W1 w9 x1 U* c, j7 d% R% m0 W' K3 M4 {
爱民顿、卡而加利,到今年的萨斯卡通、瑞嘉纳,轮番上涨的时候,后面都有一个跟着上涨凑热闹的尾巴,那就是温尼泊了。4 R5 d# R+ S2 N2 j( u. |

2 j' p; G9 h  O! s: @( L曾经主张新移民去温尼泊,就是觉得那里的房子还负担的起。等那里的房价也炒上去,整个加拿大,就没有适合新移民落脚的地方了。
