@Timo – Corporate dollars I’m sure. However, the City is already paying for Christmas trees and the City/Exchange Biz is already planning on building a skating rink. Bundle them together with carols played over a loudspeaker system, xmas lights on trees and buildings, and a nearby retailer slinging hot chocolate, and you’ve got something that should attract sponsor interest.

have you ever asked who pays for the ice rink and tree at Rockefeller?

Maybe what City Hall needs instead of a Xmas tree is a nice bonfire – made out of the deadwood around City Hall!

That’s a good idea.

Why not have a really big tree at the Forks too!!!

Don’t forget, Saskatchewan also beat out Winnipeg to host this year’s World Junior Hockey Tournament.

Winnipeg: It just gets worse every day!

Okay, I got that last bit from Wikipedia.

The streets are paved with gold in Calgary.

Sure, but will these new pieces by Jaume Plensa explore his themes of dualism, light, and water, extending the use of video technology from his prior works?

But the Chicken Ffried Steak at Chilis is one good tasting heart attack!

Spent many nights at East Side Marios when it was here, nothing special. Perhaps that is why it isn’t here anymore.

You could blind fold me, spin me around for two days to disorient me, put me in a car and I may not be able to tell if we were driving through SK, AB or BC but I could sure as hell tell you once we got into Manitoba.

I’m a veteran prairie driver the highways here are a disgrace. No worries though there is always a friendly RCMP constable hiding behind a bush a few minutes past the border coming into Manitoba to alert you off the road conditions as he is giving you the official “Welcome to Manitoba” certificate.

It’s easier to hand out speeding tickets when the limit is 100. We were supposed to get 110 on all double-lane divided hwys, that is until photo radar cash started dwindling.
