Winnipeg
place. Tiny, polite city proudly built between the granite bedrock of the shield and the cambrian silt that is Canada. Once the territory of a proud indigenous people who were badly advised and shuffled to obscurity, Winnipeg has become the twelfth tawdriest city in north america and the home of the seventh-best hockey team in Canada. Grain elevating and rock-sorting remain the leading industries altjough vestiges of fishing and a shrinking tourism industry survive. Annual floods have made home-building a prosperous undertaking and a large diorama in the newly built interpretive centre illustrates how the Red river overflows it’s banks in the same places every year and floods the ssme homes.
