    Forks, Goldeye's, Bombers, Canadian Rights Museum good choices, Also Assiniboine Park Zoo - polar bear exhibit very cool. Get someone to take you out to Grand Beach or Gimli - about an hour outside of Wpg. Also a couple Casino's in town if you are into that. Lots of golf courses to try. Go for a beer on a Corydon Ave patio on a hot day, lots of great restarants there. If you are there July 1 don't miss going toThe Forks on Canada Day , great entertaiment and fireworks. Man you got a full schedule now Bring your sunglasses.

    Some of these responses are quite rude to be completely honest.. Every city has it's good's and it's bads.. Winter's in Winnipeg or on the Prairies aren't for the weak.. Summer's are, for the most part, beautiful!!

    Spent that last week and a half in Winnipeg, thanks all for the suggestions.

    Winnipeg is a great city, filled with super friendly people.

    Reminds me a lot of Ottawa.

    Checked out the Forks, a Bombers game, headed out to Folkfest and ate some delicious food and drank tasty beers.

    Can confirm; it's windy in Winnipeg!

    in fairness, I should have said local craft beer... that way he could still have gotten a taste of Winnipeg under my original suggestion
