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。8 G' U$ t. ^6 v

8 a0 @' `$ ]1 B( K, \  T7 Q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。
& |4 q4 r$ k: a
* G- ~5 ?7 R  h: v% g' Q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。, G% B0 o7 N2 v7 o* m1 z6 {, u

' W3 Q5 d7 V5 ~' b+ p8 r. w6 k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。
, `4 g7 _& z- C( c
4 I& j. k; a3 i9 N( J0 ]' D) G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。* t& M9 j0 H; E( w
2 r. y" V1 W& P9 H1 A
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。$ l- B  Q1 C/ I
+ R/ j) b' j% 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。
% Y4 F; r) P2 X; n3 _5 O( I8 C
, Z( W  H$ p* {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。
