They're beautiful creatures, and the fact that we can co-exist with them is something that not many cities the size of Winnipeg can say. One could also say that our connection to nature is one of the defining characteristics of Canada, and our main tourism draw. If Winnipeggers see deer as pests, we do so at our own peril.

Charleswood isn’t the core. I grew up in Charleswood too and while beautiful, there were way too damn many and they were often a hazard and a nuisance.
