University of Manitoba Summer Explore 2009

Before coming here, people told me to be careful because it's apparently one of the most dangerous city in Canada. Fortunately for us, the University of Manitoba is located far away from downtown, where it's more dangerous. However, to be isolated has also its disadvantages. It's weird, but what surpised me is that drivers are always nice with pedestrians, they stop to let us walk even if we normally can't cross the street. It's very different from Quebec, where they almost kill you to pass on the yellow light. Winnipeg is very 'prairies', it's green everywhere and so windy !
