Meanwhile, within 5-10 minutes of downtown Winnipeg you can get a brand new 1000+ square foot home for $79,900 and they'll pay your 10% down payment for you. You pick the lot, they'll build it for you.
how true.

we lived in a great house in River Heights in Winnipeg...10 minutes from everything...1200 sq feet, 96 000$ we paid for it in 1998. schools, kids, arenas all over the place

tried to duplicate that house in Calgary...paid 227 000 for a smaller house, built the same year, further from downtown...no kids on the street, and the local school had closed.

so we packed up and moved (for now) to the suburbs. we'll see where this goes
