Does Winnipeg REALLY Exist?

  • Or is it just a Hollywood invention? This is a video created in Winnipeg for Economic Development Winnipeg, Winnipeg's tourism and economic development agency to promote the site visitwinnipegno... which sells Winnipeg as a great place to move to because of job opportunities (even in the recession) affordable housing and plenty of cool things to do. And also because it exists.

    I went to high school just outside of Winnipeg. Our sociology teacher showed us Reds in 1985, and I distinctly remember Warren Beatty mentioning Winnipeg, and the murmur of the class. And this was in the middle of my obsessive personal interest in the 1919 General Strike!

    About 45 years ago I sat down with my dad to watch the 39 steps ... First time I'd ever heard Winnipeg mentioned in a movie, I've never forgotten it, I danced around the living room.
    BTW, the novel The 39 Steps was written by a former Governor General of Canada.
    Extremely obscure Winnipeg mention: The Mean Farmer radio sketch.
    When CKND picked up David Letterman's show, they ran a roll of words you could spell with the letters in Winnipeg. After a while, they were just nonsense mishmashes of letters.

    A new one to add: On Lipstick Jungle, Wendy was in charge of a biopic of John Lennon starring an actor who was dying of cancer. He died so the movie wasn't made, but before he died, she was at the board room table with other execs, and she said to them, "Now, tell me how you're going to make Winnipeg look like Liverpool." (Hey, it should be easy to make Winnipeg look like Liverpool with some of the weather we get. Not to mention using.....The Cavern!)
