However, I am encouraged to see a few entrepreneur's out there with the balls to invest in North Main and put their money where everyone else has their mouth.

FYI .. new airport terminal and possible new airport hotel and airport business centre is 100% private money. No government funds.
In my optinion this is the greatest project happening in Winnipeg as we speak .. and if the new hotel and business centre come to pass it will be even greater.
Winnipeg's economy is definately picking up speed and things haven't looked this promising for a very long time. Yes there are still government projects masking the reality, but in this case the reality is a growing economy with growing business investment.
