Maybe I just live in the wrong place for Bonanza? Bonanza! was a buffet chain when I was a kid, but when I lived in Alberta there was the one channel wt Get Smart, the british Avengers show, and Green Acres. Fred Penner and Mr. Dressup were also on CBC.

For sentimental reasons, I will be moving to Point Douglas in the next few years. It's definitely not the area the city looks after the most, but is also where the Winnipeg I remember from when I was a child still lives.

Hi I'd like to live in your daydream there's probably a bunch of well-lit and drained pedestrian and bike underpasses from Jarvis to Logan and a high-frequency bus that only runs up and down Logan between 4AM and 10PM every 15m.

Imagine a Winnipeg where money is poured into civil services for those who can't afford dignity.

Kinda similar to Millennium Library here in Winnipeg. Maker spaces, instruments to check out, lots of presentation rooms, tonnes of seating areas too.
