    Thoroughly enjoyed watching. Wish we still had the old Woolco. That was my favorite store when I was a teenager (Kmart too).

    Love the flood pic. My great grandfather was the fire chief of Wpg at the time and we have film of the flood. I also enjoyed the roller rink pic--many good memories as a 13 year old, including the "snowball."

    Great video! The picture at 9:18, though-that's not City Hall, but in fact the view up King Street looking west with its Notre Dame intersection in the photo centre. That's a church where there is now a paking lot, and has been for many decades. I think there's only a single building in this photo still standing today-the location is recognizable mainly by the layout of the streets! I believe you can see the church on Graham Avenue kitty-corner from CityPlace at the top left.

    4:48 mark says it's 1958 ....but there's a 67 camero parked on the left side of the sreet. That truck looks like a Bekin's Moving & storage truck that has a new owner.

    My Grandfather got off the train in Winnipeg in 1912 (?) and a fellow passenger advised him to go across the street from the station and buy a revolver at the pawn shop. Yes Winnipeg had a 'rep' back then (not unduly deserved). Great look back at the old hometown.

      yes Winnipeg has always had a violent past and made another video about the Winnipeg Police and the influx of immigrants in 1905 was sort of chaotic in the city until 1913

    Very nice. Too bad Winnipeg has been ruined where it concerns the demolitian of may nice buildings and replacing them by new and modern (and also with no fantasy) buildings. I lived (as a Dutchman in Winnipeg for almost 4 years ('60-'64) and miss the old Winnipeg. Love the city!
    Thanks for the video.

    The Hudson Bay building was completed on Nov 18th 1926 so your picture of it dated 1921 is inaccurate

    Great video, and as a man who's lived in Winnipeg for 70 years, I'd say things
    have gotten a lot worse over the last 15 years. There's a lot more homeless
    people, and beggars hanging around. You never real saw this in the 1960's
    thru to the 1990's. There's also a ton more drug addicts hanging around, and
    moral standards have gone way down. I hope things get better, but with a lot
    of immigrants coming into Canada, that will stretch out welfare budgets, I think
    things will get worse before they get better. Just about "everytime" I go grocery
    shopping, someone is always hitting me up for money. Didn't use to be that way.
    It's very unsettling when approaching a store, and seeing people sitting around
    outside, and you know you have to pass them by, and you know what's coming.

    • @bearlamb5026

      actually and October 1929 millions of people were homeless. Due to the stock market crash the Great Depression started. Leaving over two million people in North America homeless. And over 90 million people around the world without a job. Places like Germany actually had children starving. And there were many homeless around the world even in Canada. Places like Toronto Winnipeg and Vancouver. All had homeless people at the time living in tents. Even in Winnipeg's first immigration influx in 1900 from 1905 over a thousand people lived in Portage Avenue in tents.. Due to there was no housing built or established in Winnipeg. 6th of December 1917 Halifax Nova Scotia Canada. One of the biggest explosions. Due to an accident happening in the port. two vessels collided together one of the vessels started on fire. Killing over 1700 people. And injuring another 9,000 people. Most of those people were injured and homeless. Some have to live in tents for 3 to 4 years. ...... but today we have a problem with homelessness. Throughout Canada. The reason why people live in tents. That there is no proper housing affordable for those individuals. Most of the homes and apartments have been bought up by the communist Chinese party. That raises prices a thousand percent. This happens in Toronto and in Edmonton and Vancouver and Calgary. Where an average home used to cost $300,000 in these places now it's over 1.3 million. Are the wages have not increased. And certain individuals do not have the skills to work. most people are homeless. And try to fight to stay alive. The government has cancelled all drug rehab programs. Throughout Canada where individuals can get clean and get a job and go back to work and live in an apartment. There's a problem there is no Apartments affordable for these people. The liberal government has cancelled over 29 million dollars in Canada alone. Over two hundred million dollars is needed for a proper rehab program throughout Canada.

      @@bearlamb5026 Plus brining in millions of immigrants is not helping we should stop all immigration to Canada and deport millions back to their homeland so they can make their own countries better and it will help repair the damage done by huge populations in Canada cities. This is the problem it tracks perfectly with the data yet no one speaks up about it why? Political correctness is destroying Canada as a kid in the 70s it was so much better but once the Trudeaus got power it has been going down hill ever since the only people gaining from mass immigration are the rich and powerful that is why it will continue until Canada will look like the countries most of these people came from . I predicted this 30 years ago and have been proven correct.
