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。
9 W( S, ~, x/ y5 Q0 j, s
. o' f- g  r' L- Q8 o# w$ \! h; ?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。

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。3 g( p* a$ A5 n; Q/ w- `' s" @

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。5 _: B! f9 c1 Q% ?- w

4 [' X4 e  H8 e0 p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。
& O: z9 c: g; v- z+ U3 F
6 W4 c. W  @; ?: Y' Y9 o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。
" n. D3 }: S6 O6 b3 S+ ]- p& _0 d- L( h, i( w& O( k
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。& |+ ?  H, Q5 Q$ s- I( Z

9 a# ?% S/ G& j" K3 m/ I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。
