Thanks very much. I thoroughly enjoyed doing the walking. Bingo. I do these in Edmonton as well to encourage people to discover or re-discover what we have to offer.

There are so many people here who have taken our city for granted over the years. Downtown Winnipeg is definitely changing for the better though.

Hopefully you come back soon!
