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 m- V4 V: g1 ~9 `3 t
3 P$ v) ?5 F& q: V+ W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。
9 G) v" N" s& V. P& i* Q( z8 y% k
2 A& E& t% m/ g8 o+ D# [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。; m1 S; R4 E# L2 ^" q9 _: W

2 }3 q* z( n+ D' }7 l7 I8 r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。. E' N1 S- p/ i/ w4 @
6 D. z- v! ?5 C& T
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。! _# P' ?3 O- B2 V9 t% e+ [3 A

* I  b. V/ U+ h& w- [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。5 }& m7 [0 n5 G( S5 z
  ~  P+ b; H5 x; k8 N4 W
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。8 g% b& K. M2 A, z
% A. P2 R" }: L: z+ y6 f+ n
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。
