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。1 s$ M( W0 o# o# b

& D) N2 z; e/ b- y  ]* h( f& x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。
. r8 G1 p' @8 K: Y0 T$ U$ e3 [) i
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。& S$ S9 F: k2 C! }) W

" L7 Y2 r( d- n- ^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。" a) e  S! }. B# H

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。
& j, ?# i) y$ p# t! H2 \
/ I, m' U/ f! p- @7 U7 W9 p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。
- L1 {% C7 G" p" \# W( M4 a5 U5 H' _6 C) S' ^: @
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。
9 n+ }1 k1 \+ |8 l4 \* j& g1 U8 X5 R" D: L7 v0 h
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。
