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。' Q- w8 a3 E9 X6 [1 a3 i* @8 r$ C

; b) o8 x9 }# m5 W5 ^. A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。
6 m4 F' [9 V# E% @" \& T# w4 W2 S
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。! X# s  ~0 `( E* X$ j
) \7 x6 Z3 C7 S0 {: L
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。1 o$ h# p5 ]" H- `+ \4 L

+ t3 `! d" l+ }  v! ]7 [$ `: 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。
, J# H1 B" u1 r# r/ N- Y1 J% a1 Z+ ?7 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。% p' z6 p' Q  m) d4 S3 U

) Y! r. v* _/ e8 j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。
