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。
; ~* r. P9 N* S% k4 ^1 S  g, L' ~. |0 k1 R6 G/ y
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。
; ^- s: l- X; V( A6 \- T
7 C. C% _1 y! y7 C+ k- t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。4 `+ a" U/ Y) T  M

$ t9 E, o& k/ Z( q! 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。
2 K9 N2 \% }: T
  @# @  N4 h% i# c! K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。- P7 R) @9 e1 g8 {- R
! n; t0 N9 F' u! H
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。# p% O+ Q$ \# Z. t- o0 P

$ E8 d8 G4 q' u$ _9 ^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。
5 k0 r. r6 L2 H2 u& m' j9 H; A/ R- h$ O, V6 U0 [. W
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。
