Unfortunately...I lived in winnipeg for a long time. Unfortunately in the last 15 years it has progressively become worse crimewise. I sold my house, uprooted my family and left the province in 2008. I just couldn't take the preferential treatment the aboriginal population was and still is receiving from all levels of government. Over the years, I watched as families left the reserves and came to live in Winnipeg. They had no job skills, little education and quite often had substance abuse problems. I watched as they transformed older neighborhoods into urban reserves. Quietly, block by block, the transformation took place until an entire neighborhood was now a "hood".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
