- Planning a trip to Winnipeg, Canada, and want to know what to expect? You may know of this city as being the capital of Manitoba, the prairie city with some serious winters, but did you also know about the museums, multi-cultural spirit, the film history, and that you can actually get a suntan here? We show you a thing or two that you may not have known about Winnipeg.

October 1/22,no more ArriveCan!!
Ten winters,I did my time!! 🥶🥶
Do tell everybody about how you found "Portage and Main 50 below".
-40C with the wind chill, it's like a hundred needles going into your face.
Avoid frostbite at all cost! It hurts when thawing out.
Wimps I lived here all my life Winnipegers are tough
@@brettthomas5605 a true manitoban relishes the cold
Loved how you presented Winnipeg! Also, love how it’s seen through other people’s eyes.
People talk about the cold but few talk about the intense heat 😅
And mosquitoes
...and donkey trail roads.@@jameskeyes9112
Spring and fall are also really nice in Winnipeg
...of course my comment gets deleted..... nobody wants to be reading anything factual.
Thank you for including a bit of our First Nations culture, it’s nice to see that people from other countries are taking the time to check it out😊
I totally agree with you, this city is beautiful!!
Very cool. I am born and raised here so it was interesting to see another person's perspective. Thanks for posting!
Hello sir, how is city from your thoughts? Is city that bad or that dangerous like other people mentione?
@mrttrmmurat4708 it's amazing city and ppl!
I’ve lived in Manitoba all my life (I love Winnipeg!) & I can’t remember seeing shorts outdoors when it’s colder than -15c. I have, however, seen snow fall in June, and in September.
I love the film-making scene here, and if you do too, definitely check out the Exchange district. And if you love theatre like I do, come in the 2nd half of July for the awesome Fringe Theatre festival, where you can see over a hundred different shows.
There was that guy who swore to never wear long pants until the Bombers won the cup again. What was it? 18 years?
It's normal in the spring when you get that one warm day. Shorts and a sweater
Fishing is really big here year round as well, as well as cycling!
Thank you, our next trip we want to do is Winnipeg.
thank you for the nice video of Winnipeg .in the summer month of July and august are great . folk feast in July. in bird hill park an out door music festival start in 1974 about 70,000 attend . also folkarama is festival of culture in august. vist different pavilions . enjoy the food from about 30 Folklorama is an event that runs for two weeks each August in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Visitors to the festival are invited to sample cuisine and celebrate the cultural and ethnic heritage of people from dozens of cultures who have made Winnipeg their home. Folklorama is the world's largest and longest-running multicultural festival. Each culture has an assigned venue, known as a pavilion.
The winter doesn't bother me. I've got to visit!
If you come for winter, I suggest the last two weeks of February. The days are getting longer and warmer and you can check out the Festival du Voyager, the second biggest winter festival in Canada celebrating the French pioneers, Metis and native fur trappers and traders who plied there trades along the banks of the Red and Assiniboine rivers and many other tributaries and lakes from Thunderbay to the the northern territories of Canada. It's a fun filled two weeks.
Awesome video!! Keep up the great work 👍
What a nice video! Winnipeg is a great city and you found some of the things that make it so. There are many more to discover so hopefully you'll come back soon.
Okay, I have lived my entire 52 years in Winnipeg and have never once heard a single person here call it the Peg.
I hear it daily on radio shows.
It's as common as Winterpeg
I hear it all the time. Depends on your contacts I guess.
I’d love to visit the city my great grandfather was born in 1910 and lived in till 1915 before moving to the USA
I not saying Winnipeg is cold but when I went to the Forks last winter the warming huts on the river were closed because it was too cold. People in Winnipeg understand the cold.
A genius piece of the peg.
As a proud Winnipegger. I would describe the Canadian Museum for Human Rights as a repository of ideas rather than things. The evolution of human thought and kindness. But if you like historical things there is no finer museum than Winnipeg Museum of Natural History. Previously known as the Winnipeg Museum of Man and Nature.
Nice to hear you enjoyed your visit here 👍🙂 my home born n raised but yeah come again 💯❤
We will ❤️ Winnipeg!!
Nice to hear good things about Pegcity since I live here and see the soft underbelly and hear just the negative things. I guess that happens everywhere. It's a tough but resourceful city. It's been said if you can survive here, you can survive anywhere. You obviously stayed around the touristy areas which are very nice. I still haven't gone to the human rights museum, someday. A lot of the city isn't in the tourist brochures, you have to venture out and ask around or just look around. Hope you make it back this way an see more.
If you stay on the main roads all you'll see are strip malls, but if you drive into neighbourhoods you'll see how Winnipeggers really live. Check out Lyndale Drive, or Riverview, or Tuxedo (yes, it's really called Tuxedo). Check out Wolseley, especially in summer when the place comes alive with front yard gardens. You'll love it!
@@DaveGIS123 So true.
Winnipegger here. Pretty decent video and good info *in general*.
Couple of things:
1. Canada has two official languages, English & French. That’s why all signs in Canada are bilingual (by law). It’s not a Winnipeg thing.
2. Pretty close on the winter thing, but it left the impression that winter lasts until
May. Not so. We usually get our snow that stays for the winter (as opposed to falling & melting) around the middle of Nov. and the spring melt usually starts in March. We’re usually golfing by mid-April. But yes, sometimes we’ll get a freak snow as late as June, but anything after mid-April just melts within an hour. Winters can have a couple of “cold snaps” each year that can last as long as 2 weeks, but those are the extremes. Usually not nearly that cold. The good news is, when it’s cold, it’s also brilliantly sunny, and the streets are bone dry. When it gets warm, it’s more cloudy, and the streets get messy. I prefer the cold, sunny days (within reason!). Go Jets Go!!!
Actually Canada has three languages:- English, French, and "Poutine" (which however is not yet "official", right?). 😉
Is Winnipeg that bad and dangerous as other people mentioned?
In the last 20 years it has warmed up and we get about 1 1/2 less months of winter. I know on Halloween , lots of times there was snow and it was cold and I have see it take until May for the snow to melt but not in the last 25 years. I worked outside on CN and froze at -25 many times on March 25. April was the month everything melted but now it is March. I have seen it snow in July once in the 1970's. It will continue to warm up. The more northern places will be warming up more. Florida will not notice any difference but northern Manitoba already has much warmer weather than in the past.
Winnipegger here, if you live in The Pas or Churchill and had snow in June, great. Not here.
Crap town you'll get robbed. Native people here don't work because I know they don't get hired so crime is every where. Meth drugs alcohol don't live here. Bullshit not worth it to live here. If you're native in winnipeg you have to learn how to steal rob or sell drugs. Education work experience does not matter if your native. The ugly truth
My mom was born to american parents here in 1933 and lived here till she was 16 before moving to the States. She always spoke so fondly of Winnipeg. I’d love to visit some time tho maybe not in wintertime 😊
I was born in Winnipeg, you should visit
Dats what I been telling everybody..... winter cold, yes, although it's sunny, making winter beautiful
Great video. Thanks. While Winnipeg is cold in the winter, Winnipeg is also one of the warmest in the summer and sunniest cities in Canada. Winnipeg is in the heart of lake country, surrounded by many lakes nearby and very nice beaches on those lakes, which can be very refreshing on one of those 30+ degree days in the summer.
Sorry man but that ain’t it chief, Winnipeg is the Detroit of Canada
@@ryanmarasigan5748 You obviously haven't been to Detroit or you haven't been to Winnipeg, or both. There is no shortage of positive growth in Winnipeg. Detroit has seen its economy decline since the 70's.
I think Higgins and main would disagree XD or salter, Selkirk, McGregor, pretty much all of the north end would also disagree. Winnipeg is a s### hole no offense
@@swagginmcjaggin1078
Don't get out much? Complain to the warden.
@@waynejones5635
Growth of crime
The city is as beautiful as it is heart-rending. The (new) mayor and council have their work cut out for them in cleaning up the obvious, long-standing problems of poverty and crime. Beyond that, it's a city with "great bones" and could literally go either way at this turnpike.
Very good video for sure
Glad you think so! 🙌
The difference between Christmas and the end of March is daylight, temperature stays the same.
thank you , this is a pretty nice useful video on Manitoba
We get two extremes plus 40 in the summer to minus 40 in the winter.
Finally a great video about this amazing city! Thank you 😊
You’re welcome 😀
Was very privileged to have lived in Winnipeg for almost 5 years and fell in love with it. There is surprisingly much to do and it's very culturally diverse.
I'm moving to this city in a few months, this is the best video I've seen.
ive had plans of moving here the past few years but ive always been stopped from family and just the world im hoping i can move out there this or later next year if my friend wanted to split the rent because rent is so difficult with times these days hopefully i can make things happen👌
@@chippeway1000 Do your own thing, hope you make it here, you should fit right in.
Hey. I was wondering if you moved there yet? If so, how is it, how do you like the city?
@@thefencyfellas8411 Actually i haven't, it will take a year from now but I'll make sure to come back to this comment once I do.
@@thefencyfellas8411
Winnipeg is a hole
Come on down to cape breton
I just returned from a few days in Winnipeg and will be back for a week in June. You are right on with the culture, diversity and should add how that adds to the beauty of the City. If you’re into architecture you will love this city. Right on with the comments about arts and culture.
Where you find architecture in the city, mostly parking loots everywhere in downtown
@@bohdanhnatyuk4985 n
No such thing as "diversity" It's difference. We are different, not diverse.
Thank you for visiting our wonderful city!
Prairietown on the edge of Flatland:- one very good thing about Winnipeg is that there are no hills there which makes it easier to get around! 😊
That is true - thanks for adding that!
I will love to visit 😉😊
good vid
I go there every day and no I don’t live there but I do live in Manitoba like a hour away from Winnipeg
Great Info-video! Wish you could have also focused on some of the beaches located at southern part of Lake Winnipeg. Those would be a huge draw for tourists and only 45 min. north east and north west of the city.
Lake Winnipeg, Canada's sixth largest lake features Grand Beach on the eastern side with powdery white sand beaches and grass-topped dunes that make this one of the top beaches in North America with sand dunes and lagoons supporting many species of wild birds. Also on the western side of the lake we have Winnipeg Beach and the Gimli Municipality with Icelandic origins. Both sides easily accessible and close to the City for day trips.
Great beaches, all right, with plenty of mosquitoes and black flies feasting on you there! Lol
@@NMD714 sorry no black flies, those are in Ontario, mosquitoes yes
@@NMD714 sounds like they need to adjust their city budget just for pest control or just carry a can of 'OFF' repellent and spray yourself head to toe! 😆👌
@@devon1306You must be a real mentally troubled kid to go around under almost every comment about Winnipeg and talking negatively. Damn, that's insane bro. Did they jail you in Winnipeg or something and hence such deep seated grudge? Kid, that's messed up big time. That is insanity.
Grand beach on lake Winnipeg made national geographic as one of the best beaches in the world due to its beautiful carribean style sand.
Great video, Winnipeg is a really cool city
no
@@stewartkashuba4411 you don't like it there? I was thinking of moving to Winnipeg, but I'm interested in hearing any bad things about it too.
😂
Yeah it's a cool city to get stabbed or killed in
@stewartkashuba4411 rather than saying simply "NO", state the reason also, so that others can understand what's going, please
Excellent Video and valuable information, visiting Winnipeg soon
Thank you, as a "Pegger" I enjoyed your video. Just a comment about the mosquitoes - they aren't as bad as they used to be - really! We have had a really great environmentally friendly control system in place for several years. I barely notice them now. In August we have Folklorama, the largest and longest-running (54 years) multicultural festival of its kind in the world. 38 pavilions this year! The winters are cold but I guess I'm used to them. There is so much to do in winter to keep you warm, like the Festival du Voyageur, the largest Francophone event in Western Canada every February, Hé ho!!. Also, the normally 6km Nestaweya River Trail is loads of fun though we had such a mild winter this year that only one section opened at the end of January - this is where you'll see many of the spectacular warming huts.
Festival du Voyageur is something you should have mentioned.
You’re right! Looks fun!
@@RunTheAtlas C'est la meilleure semaine. Avec la musique et les sculptures de glace. La nourriture et les jeux sont fantastiques/It is the best week. With the music and ice sculptures. The food and the games are fantastic. I love visiting Winnipeg. Love the beaches too.
Aww thank you for the recommendation and the translation! Merci ✨🙌
This is so refreshing to watch! I am planning to move to Winnipeg and most of the videos I've seen has made me doubt my deicision because it was just repeated negativity
Most videos tell you the truth.
Think twice before move here for a long time. Don't forget about crimes and drugs.
@@antonrasskazov9390 I was born in Winnipeg. Moved far away from this sewer 20 years ago. I only come back to visit and shop and I keep my doors locked when I do come. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
She did a great job at making this city look nice. Most times you’re stuck in traffic or feeling bad you can’t donate to the homeless
Ah yes. She painted a rosy picture of city life for the tourists.
I survived a couple days at the main street projects lol with no shoes back in 2014 lol. Just stay away from Main Street.
Check it out in January!
It should be noted that many Franco-Manitobans have been assimilated. French was banned in Manitoba in 1890 much like it was banned in New England and Louisiana. In 2016, Manitoba established the Francophone Community Enhancement and Support Act to save and promote the French language and it's Franco-Manitoban culture.
Hey, being assimilated in Winnipeg is still much better than being assassinated in Toronto! 😉
Winnipeg is so nice city
Great informative video about Winnipeg
Glad you enjoyed it
I've been Winnipeg 22 years ago..can i go there again from KOREA?
We are coming from Europe to visit our mom in winnipeg. Very exciting! 😊

Which franchise to buy in winnipeg
Mosquito and black flies repellents!!! 🤣😂🤣
I really appreciated 😍😍😍😍
I was there in June, it was hot and humid. Felt like I was in texas..
Yes the hot weather was so surprising!
That's a little exaggerating, Danny Sharp. The average hot temp in Winnipeg is at least 89, and 85 further up north until you're a lot closer to the Arctic Circle. How hot did it get up to when you were there?
@@Religious_manuh this summer it was 107 F or 42C with the humidity making it feel like 117F or 47C most of the summer. Also Winnipeg is nowhere near the arctic.
@@Matthew-km6fi
Holy smoke, in what part of Canada had those temperatures? Imagine the Dust Bowl days of the 1930s! Also, I did not say Winnipeg is near the Arctic Circle. Put on your reading glasses.
Really interesting, thanks.
Hello sweet couple. Visit in the south pole durint the winter 😢
Can you tell something about banking industry in winpeg?
Well there are banks here and there and they have some antique cash in them hidden in safes but mostly everyone uses plastic. There's also the Red River which has a bank on each side and each of these banks runs for miles and miles! Just some droll Canadian humor, eh? 😉
Funny how people think Montreal is all that when in fact the people in Montreal are the rudest Canadians. If I dare call them Canadian, as Quebec is pure poision for your good reputation.
In Montreal the only friendlyness is attached to tipping. In Winnipeg you find genuin friendly people. Montreal is dirty and run down. Winnipeg is clean and has many new facilites. Montreal is the color grey 90% of the time while Winnipeg is the color blue must of the time. It rain nearly everyday in Montreal while Winnipeg is very sunny. The ground in Montreal is a mix of cement, black top and parks are muddy. While Winnipeg is green and has nice grassy parks. Montreal has nice architectute but places are shabby and mostly run down and delapitated. Winnipeg has some very good architecture and is much better maintained. Montreal infasturture is all falling apart and has on occations even killed people. Winnipeg replaces most older bidges and tore down buildings that have had dangerous hazards. Just yesterday in Montreal enginers discoved cracks in the greenline metro line. They have this problem do to decades of construction corruption. Winnipeg gets a bad rap for cold weather, but no one seems to mention just how hot it gets in summer, and that people flock to the many nearby beaches or city parks. While in Montreal it can also get to -40c in Winter, and rains so much in summer it might as well be Vancouver.
The french don't make much effort to use other language, while the english speakers of Winnpgers will go out of their way to find someone who speaks your language. Montreal old port is for two things lawyers and tourists. While the exchage district is for collage students, arts, theaters, city hall, living and yes tourists.
I lived in both cities back and forth over the past 20 years. I am BA of geograghy and attended both University of Manitoba and Concordia University.
Personally I love hate both cites but the people in Montreal are much ruder. While Winnipeg has some very big social issuses. Montreal is less violent but has big organized crime problems. As for travels you are safe in either city.
Winnipeg means in Ojibway "dirty water"
Time to move when the biggest attraction in my city is giant perogies

The last time I was in Winnipeg was more than 42 years ago - before you were born. 😄
Does it look the same?
@@RunTheAtlas The layout is the same, but most of the structures are noticeably different or newly built since the last time I was there. I doubt I could remember my way around if I should visit.
@@RunTheAtlasmuch dirty . Thanks to natives
Winnipeg gets a bad rep but crime takes place everywhere in every single city some like Toronto and Vancouver do a better job of hiding it hey tourists! Winnipeg and Manitoba is an awesome place to live with so much to do and see if you take the time. Summer, winter, spring and fall.
You used to buy crack off me
I used to live there, it's a lovely city and the people are so friendly. Nice to go through memory lane. I would just say you need to learn how to say Tagalog correctly
Thanks for the tips! Cheers!
What's Tagalog actually?

Snow till May but stabbing lasts all year long.
You 😅guys need to come to bc to see true homelessness we have city's of druggies who like the stabbing too
Just read this today July.28 2023. Just yesterday a young store owner went out his front door to talk to a guy that grabbed a drink and simply walked out. He yelled at him as he walked away and the guy turned around whipping out a saw off shot gun and blasted him. Yes, because he got yelled at by an actual working person. I personally know home envision victims, kidnap victims(yes, both plural), a victim of attempted murder, multiple assault causing bodily harm, and more victims of who have been legit victims of death threats. O, and I was raised in a whote middle class neighborhood and never in a gang or around gang members. Winnipeg is freaking dangerous. It has a well-earned bad rep for a reason.
I think this whole stabbing thing is a bit exaggerated. I’ve lived in Winnipeg for almost 2 years now and I’ve only been stabbed 3 times. So it’s not as bad as you guys make it out to be.
I was born in Winnipeg but grew up In Arizona. I’ll be visiting for the third time this year and I have never experienced anything bad or felt like I was in danger. That does not mean that I won’t pay attention to my surroundings though. I also have a big family in Winnipeg and nothing has ever happened to them. A few even live in the North End.
Sadly some whites and natives are blamed for the violence.
its litrillly 2 hours from the border bro
As a former "Pegger". I've been gone for 10 years and the dominant language is now Tagalog. Since so many Filipino people now reside there. Also, the Peg has the most festivals in all of Canada during the summer months. Thanks, for your kind words. ❤👌
Thanks for sharing! This region is so much more diverse than we thought!
English is still the dominant language by far, the peg does have a large Filipino community

There are no lakes in Winnipeg. There is a Lake Winnipeg. 7th largest fresh water lake in the world. Not in Winnipeg.
The trans Canada highway runs through the heart of Winnipeg.
While you are correct that yes there are no lakes directly in Winnipeg, there is more than one lake in Manitoba. North of the city we have an entire section of the province called the Interlake region and we have dozens of lakes to fish and swim in, 15 minutes out of Winnipeg and all the way north.

Wow, tell me more about my home!

A good place to visit but
Didn't mention the majestic Mount Royal Hotel or the historic Sutherland on Main Street.
Nor the praiseworthy vermin that frequent these establishments.
Some things are best left unsaid... Just saying...
And if you ever visit Winnipeg, you must order chicken tenders with honey dill sauce. It's a requirement.
I'm Canadian. Where is "the six"? Manitoba has nicer summers than most of the US. Lived here for 70 years and very very seldom see anyone wearing shorts in winter. I have but not common. Ontario is a Province not a city. Toronto is the capital of Ontario. Love our Philipinos.
The 6 (or the 6ix) is the nickname for Toronto, because of the six municipalities making up Metro Toronto
True story. I bought a window unit air conditioner for our porch but I didn't get to use it until the THIRD SUMMER AFTER THAT, because the next two summers were cold and wet. There are good points to Winnipeg but I couldn't take the climate. The last straw was New year's eve, 2013/2014 when we made the news with the headline ... Winnipeg, colder than the surface of Mars. We moved to BC and now we get maybe 2 days a year where there's snow on the road, we traded minus 40 for plus 40 and never looked back. Winnipeg isn't for everyone.
Definitely need to be tough to live here.
See ya.
Not going to defend Winnipeg because I don't like living in the area...but plus 40 in B.C? No...
@@josephinakeam6197
I'm American and I was never really aware it gets that hot in B.C. I know it often gets up to at least 26.5C in the summer in B.C. But 39C...how often is that in the Canadian prairies? I'm talking normal summer air temperature readings, not "climate change/global warming temperatures."
@@Religious_man winnipeger here.
Sorta depends, we've had some summers that are almost unbearably hot at 35c+ for a week or so. We've also had summers that don't ever get past 25.
Also when a Winnipeger talks about the weather, it's not small talk. It's an actual conversation
