You have to copy the url of the image itself.



It's really the forum's fault for not having a "You cannot display a url as an image" warning.

Why are you so interested in Winnipeg? Are you originally from there?

Careful now, or someone may start accusing you of liking this city! And inevitably they will ask or simply state 'Why!'.

This coming from someone who lives in a very dense urban, culturally rich, affluent and growing national capital city - and an NHL team as a bonus.

Bring back the CFL to our nation's capital!

Nobody here is really hooked on football (me neither).
We like curling, hockey and muffins.

^The funny thing is... Ottawa used to be hooked on CFL football. What happened (other than the awful teams ever since that the early eighties)?

I like the forks and that little cobblestone street just north of Portage where everything is quiet and has a Paris feel to it...

But the real reason is:

I LOOOOOOOVE THE PRAIRIES!!!!

Plus, The peaople are unbelively polite!

I'm just interested to know what people from outside of the province and city find attractive and great about our neck of the woods.
