You can always grow tomatoes in your window or something. By the spring forecast I heard on the radio yesterday that should work better than planting a garden outdoors.

   

Rev I don't know if I entirely agree with your comment about the humidity, for the ten years I was there it was almost as humid as southern Ontario!

Cost of living is actually pretty good, utilities are really good when compared to Ontario! My gas bill doubled, and hydro almost tripled!
Shep I used to live off Corydon just behind Sir john Franklin community centre! Very nice, quiet neighbourhood.


To reiterate what Rev said about mosquitos "Muskol with deet is Manitoba cologne!"

   

So the mosquitoes are worse there than in Oakville by the lake in the middle of summer? Thats gonna sucks balls.

   

Thats about exactly where I live, but a bit closer to Grant, I LOVE Sir John Franklin. Best place in the city to play some shinny during the winter.

   

You mean the one that the panhandlers and the bums have? "Eh buddy you god denny spare change?" That's hardly typical of Winnipeg, or are you taling about old Uke farmers that retire in city. Up north of the Garlic Curtain around Little Kiev(Dauphin), it sometimes sounds like a convention of Boris and Natasha impersonators. 'Vlad you sumnabeetch(short blurb of ukrainian)! Did you buy dat new trock yet?'
'No! god be dammit, I been too busy trashing and I had to buy parts for my swatter. Dat, an I been makink big troble for squirrel and moose'. I kid you not. There are lots of people up there between Dauphin and the Ducks who have been in Canada for generations and still sound like they're fresh off the boat from Modder Russia.
