Hi Tilda! Thanks so much for watching and for the lovely comment! 😁 So happy you like the video!
Bike rentals, canoe rentals, water taxis, tour boats. In the winter, skate rentals for the river trail. It's a people place. Truly a gem.
We agree!! The Forks is such a great place to visit in Winnipeg! We love going there! 😁

I’m heading to the forks right now.... o want that cinnamon bun. Great video
Hello! Thank you for watching! So glad you enjoyed the video And hop you have a great day at the forks! Might need to get back for some more treats soon ourselves. Lol. 😁
Yeah one of the best, Stella's cinnamon buns are great too, but they often run out fast. I live in a dump now known as Montreal where I think they have out law cinnamon buns here. I even worked at a bakery and they didn't know what they were.
I'm at the Forks right now !!!!
Hi Don! It's such a great day to be there! We hope you are enjoying every minute. Thanks so much for watching! :)
9:53 hhaha this is our workout 😂
We're still on that workout routine...
Would like something on Assiniboine park near where I grew up in Tuxedo
Thanks for watching, and great idea! We explored a bit of the park, including the Leaf, in this video: czcams.com/video/hTVHjnjKNDQ/video.html
well shot video. personally been a while for me since I'd seen it in winter so so mine was a bit of a change. you guys still in winnipeg?
Thanks for the kind words! And yup, we are still in Winnipeg.
Going for a skate tomorrow on the river with my 6 year old grand daughter. It's gonna be awesome.
Wow that sounds lovely! ❤️ Enjoy and have fun!
Just got back from the Forks. Had a wonderful time with my grand daughter. Thousands of people out enjoying the beautiful weather today.
Hi Eric! That’s fantastic! So glad you had such a great experience. Can hardly wait until we go again! 😁
I live in this city im near tydall part school. near the lake btw.
How come in Montreal you will never find a cinnamon bun no matter how hard you look. I've been searching for 3 years since coming back to here and yet to find a single cinnamon bun anywhere.here it is literally impossible. I even worked a a bakery and they didn't make them either. Must by an English food!
That said a few my favorite Forks things is a coffee from that place or the one in the Johnson terminal too. Bindey's roti, breakfast and the pink lemonade at Danny's All Day, and those cinnamon buns from Prairie something bakery or whatever it's called!
I like Stellas in nearby St.B for a cinnamon bun and coffee too, but I am glad they are not at the Forks as they have many good locations all around Winnipeg and I like to see diversity at the Forks.
come to grand forks in the us, we got the most forks!
Thanks so much! 😁
I live in Winnipeg and my favorite is going to the museum
Thanks for watching! We're also locals who love the CMHR, and wanted to add more about that in our video. Now we're thinking we might create a whole separate video on the museum itself. 😀
@@HeGoesSheGoes yeah I miss going to the forks my favorite in winter u can go skating and other things Its really fun
It is really fun! The Forks is awesome in all seasons. Such a special place. Thanks again for watching! 😁
I'm going with my fiance to Winnipeg next year for studying reasons and finding your channel was just amazing! I watched almost all your videos about the city and enjoyed a lot! Thank you guys! You earned a new follower! 💯
That's awesome to hear Charlie, thank you! 😀 Also happy to hear that you guys are heading to Winnipeg. What are you studying?
@@HeGoesSheGoes I'll be doing supply chain management at RRC or MITT (haven't decided yet LOL) do you guys recommend a neighborhood in the surroundings? We're curious about the Osborne Village area.
@@charliehidalgoz We actually live in Osborne Village and love it. Everything you need is here - though we would love to see some new restaurants pop up - and it's a great hub for commuting around the city. It's also a great walking neighbourhood.
@@HeGoesSheGoes Awesome! Since I discovered the Osborne I felt really thrilled on the area! A video exploring around will be much appreciated 🙌🏼
Never been there !
We love the Forks! It’s awesome and totally worth a visit. Thank you for watching! 😃
i wish i went to the forks:(
We went to the Forks last weekend and it was lovely. Things were re-opening and we really enjoyed ourselves. If you can get there we recommend it! 😁
People that dismiss Winnipeg because it's "boring" needs to visit this place
100% agree! There's lots to see and do here. Thanks so much for watching!
How about make a video about the north end hahaha
The north end has its problems, but it also has a brighter future than any of the newer suburbs in Winnipeg, which are all far less sustainable and have far less flexibility in how their land and buildings can be used. Don't let the fact that poor people live in one place and rich people live in the other fool you.
wow that's a very pretty lady
Why rnt u guys wearing masks?
Thanks for watching Lizz! As you can see in the video, the majority of our activities at The Forks were outside, physically distanced from others. For indoor activities we were also able to keep physically distanced from others, and what interactions we had were very brief. The Forks and Inn at the Forks do good jobs of ensuring their customers are well separated. We did, of course, have our masks for any occasion where physical distancing wasn't possible. Thanks again!
Winnipeg is friendly to tourists and overall the people are chill unlike Montreal. As person who speaks just some French (poorly) moving to Montreal is kinda insane. They discriminate again anglophones daily and systematically and institutionally as well. So do not move to Montreal, it is horble, I have a BA and on welfare. If you don't speak exactly like the Quebecois they will not hire you unless it is to do a low-end job that has no movement upwards.
Even then the francophones here just personally discriminate against the english speakers. The government harms education institutions and do not give any funding to anything anglophone. These things are human rights violation that Justin Trudeau supports, gee I wonder why?
So, I plan to move away and get a job in real Canada. Do not even come to Montreal for travel, they are rude here towards tourists.
Plus, Montreal is always grey, and it rains nearly everyday or snows nearly everyday. The cement is a dark grey lime stone many of the old building made of the same dull grey to add to the glummy look.
Infrastructure is horrible and the city is always a mess. You will see garbage everywhere like the 1970 Bronx.
The mayor makes phony promises and has made this city in one big traffic jam increasing CO2 and other vehicle related pollution by placing unnecessary bike lanes along streets that simple do not need them. Some of the bike lanes are good don't get me wrong, but many are nonsense causing huge traffic jams and are not used much. She can't get anything real done because of Mr. Legault and the CAQ party that is against her and most of Montreal.
If maybe this city was separated from the rest of Quebec maybe it could improve, but that could be a few decades yet. One day it will happen though as most Montreallers do not align with that type of government and it is absolutely impossible to now change out the CAQ, as they have support across the rest of the province.
So unless you enjoy living in dirt, without a job, dicrimtated openly against by the government and harassed daily by people then I suggest not coming to Montreal.
