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。
$ |( ~% H1 _9 d$ F$ u4 @, `
2 X* L4 o7 f& ~5 K% A' e) _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。
$ J: j! K/ e, t, i! m6 R& s% R2 [7 j  N' b- e8 N' }1 [
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。7 G! G" ~1 n1 i/ p* m, 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。- Y) Z9 _; k1 O6 N8 _) B7 Z

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。

6 {, P5 u. D' [+ g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。' g% b3 F9 R7 ]2 k) U% r3 @4 V, |

( P3 |) @4 d6 o. S0 H' C: O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。$ ^, F+ m2 D* r

  A# L, |2 W9 V% h: o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。
