I used to do business in Winnipeg. Those underground tunnels, especially when it is -40C/F outside, surely are nice.

Winnipeg is always my reference when I describe to people Canadian winters. I've never actually been, and absolutely never will in the winter!

I dont know how people ever settled there.

It's been a major trading hub for over 6000 years, plus the red river valley is extremely fertile

Crossroad of two major rivers and a center of trade by river and by rail.

I've long lamented that I'll never have grandchildren to tell true stories about walking a mile to kindergarten during Winnipeg winters.

Find other people's grandchildren and tell them! Someone must know!
