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。
6 V: o- ]* ]" g4 q# d( M8 _! H
& h8 D( W+ P/ R1 I3 u) f9 n" S/ B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。
: l6 n, B0 B& a5 d3 p% ?0 M8 S$ Q$ s5 b/ B( [
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 M9 U- b5 K4 {" f" g

& M( w) J2 ~+ F/ B9 b2 B# J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。
# t- J8 q: Z; w, o* H4 T. k2 u3 v) s
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。- H& l: R# w  c( W' L* a3 C
0 U  j; X$ y+ F! c
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。/ {/ }: f$ i4 `& d
/ a: r: o% B* }+ p+ n% G0 U
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。
" l  l) w3 g. c: f" t- X  q+ o- C  L( [/ V) L9 W6 Q; Q  c
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。
