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。* M' U/ f1 d( w5 H0 ^% [* J" Q- L
6 B* R1 B' k6 f9 W2 [
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。
; G* d# O9 N! z0 x; R* j! H* s! }) r/ w7 g6 _) y# o
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。( y1 S2 C, o  v

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。

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。- r$ q% ?  \; ~" q0 g5 s% w

$ R" Y- R" Z4 q# b6 L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。- o3 d2 G; K# R5 J/ ]
2 s% m# K* i% f! a$ F
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。' k& a- g8 |+ A) X1 U: J

5 X4 w% Q4 e0 b5 e: g! J1 |* B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。
