Student Guidebook: Now That You've Arrived Student Guidebook: Now that you’ve arrived Welcome to Winnipeg! We’re so happy you’re here. Winnipeg is a small Canadian city that has been described as "cultural cradle of Canada" – meaning we have a lot of people from many countries living here! We are very proud of our diversity and many cultures here. We hope you’ll find this information useful for your time in our lovely prairie city. For more information about Winnipeg, see http://blogs.rrc.ca/international/study-at-rrc/winnipeg/ , and for information on Manitoba, see http://www.gov.mb.ca/ie/study/ . 1 AJ Batac at http://flickr.com/photos/89309115@N00/7362168462 A. Getting Around: How to Move Around Winnipeg Bus: You will be provided with a bus pass. Your bus pass will allow you to take the public buses without charge to you. You will take the bus from your homestay to and from your classes each day. Busses run regularly through the day. We will also use your bus pass for many of the activities we attend. It is very important that you keep your bus pass in a safe place and do not lose it. We will be asking you for $5 as a deposit on your Peggo bus pass. When you return your bus pass, we will return your $5. However, if you lose your Peggo bus pass, you will be charged the $5 for replacing the card. Planning your Bus Trip 1. Navigo Website - http://winnipegtransit.com/en/navigo This online tool is very easy to use. Once you enter your destination and “origin” (starting point), you can choose a time to arrive (great for being sure you will be on time!) and the tool will give you the bus stop, bus numbers, and transfers (if needed). Page 1 of 18 2. Wpg Bus Live – Smart Phone App Android http://tinyurl.com/AndroidWpgBusLive Apple http://tinyurl.com/AppleWpgBusLive This free app for your smart phone finds all the bus stops near your current location. When you choose a stop, it will give you the schedule for the stop and tell you if your bus will be on time or late. All data is from Winnipeg Transit. Busses: Did You Know? Not all buses stop at all bus stops. A sign at the bus stop will tell the location and which bus numbers stop at that location. Buses only stop at bus stops, never on parts of the street without a stop. You do not need to signal or wave for a bus. Wait at the stop where the driver can see you and he or she will stop. You must pay for your bus with your card when you get on the bus. If you pay your fare in cash, rather than with your bus pass, you are able to ask for a transfer which will give free rides (unlimited) on busses for the following 75 minutes. The price for each bus ride is the same, it doesn’t change for different routes. When you are ready to get off the bus, ring the bell before the bus stop to tell the bus driver you want to get off. Most bus stops are announced in advance so you can plan for your stop. o You can ring the bell by pulling the yellow string or by pressing the red button. If you do not know when you will arrive at your stop or location, tell the bus driver and he or she can tell you when you are at your destination. Enter at the front of the bus and exit the bus from the doors at the back. Press firmly on the yellow strip for about 3 seconds for the doors to open. Driving If you will drive in Manitoba, it is your responsibility to know Manitoba’s driving laws. You can get information from the Manitoba Public Insurance Driver’s Handbook, available in PDF for free on the Manitoba Public Insurance website: https://www.mpi.mb.ca/en/PDFs/CompleteHandbook.pdf International students are allowed to drive in Manitoba with a valid driver’s licence from another country for up to three months from the date of entry into Canada. To drive in Manitoba after the first three months of your stay, you must visit a Manitoba Public Insurance driver and vehicle licensing service outlet to learn about your options. Page 2 of 18 Taxi: Although taxis are often very affordable in other countries, in Canada taking a taxi is one of the most expensive ways to get around! If you would like to take a taxi, it is best to phone in advance because it is difficult to hail (wave over) a taxi on the street. Smoking is not permitted (allowed) in taxis. Minimum fare: CAD $3.50 for first 72.5 metres (or fewer) Beyond 72.5 metres: add CAD $1.37 per kilometer (plus time) Taxis: Did You Know? In Canada it is usual to give the Waiting: CAD $0.10 for each 13.18 seconds driver a “tip” (extra money) for Luggage charges: No charge their service. The tip should be about 15% of the cost of the Travel to pick up: No charge ride. For example, if your ride is $10, it is expected that you will Taxes are included in the price give the driver an extra $1.50. There is a maximum of four (4) passengers allowed in the taxi cab On average, expect to pay CAD $1.75 per kilometer in a taxi plus the minimum fare of CAD $3.50 Our taxis must use the meter and cannot tell you the exact price before your trip. For example, you may not negotiate a price before going to your destination. If you would like to calculate the cost of your trip before booking a cab, use this useful Fare Finder http://tinyurl.com/FareFinder to guess the approximate cost of your ride. See the directory for contact information for Winnipeg taxi companies. B. Red River College Page 3 of 18 Red River College has 3 main campuses in Winnipeg. Each campus is located in a different part of the city and has a different specialty on which it focuses. We hope to familiarize you with all three locations and the services available at each one. 1. Language Training Centre (Union Station) – 123 Main Street at Broadway For over 30 years, The Language Training Centre (LTC) has delivered an intensive English language and academic-preparation program that supports successful learning, living and working in the heart of Canada. The innovative and accessible programs bring communication to life with a dynamic learning environment and clear pathways to academic programing. The LTC supports students and their success through the delivery of educational and cultural activities – in classrooms and computer labs, online, in the community, or in the workplace. Your classes will be held at this campus alongside other English learners. 2. Exchange District Campus – Roblin Centre 160 Princess Street at William Avenue and Patterson GlobalFoods Institute 504 Main Street at William Avenue The Exchange District Campus (EDC) is a short 15-20 minute walk from LTC or a quick bus ride. It is nestled in the heart of downtown Winnipeg and is home to RRC’s creative arts, IT, culinary arts and hospitality programs. EDC also has a fitness centre (available with student card) and relaxing study spaces. Page 4 of 18 3. Notre Dame Campus – 2055 Notre Dame Ave. The Notre Dame Campus (NDC) is RRC’s largest campus and is home to the majority of the College’s skilled trades, transportation technology, health sciences, and engineering programs.

While saws and hammers bang and crash off sight we carry on with our regular programming and are pleased to wel- come the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Manitoba as our Host Sponsor. The Children’s Hospital has an interesting history that dates back to the early 1900’s when a nurse named Annie Bond moved to Winnipeg with her husband, Dr. John Bond and became a force to be reckoned with, set- ting up the fi rst Children’s Hospital on Bea- consfi eld St. The current building was built in 1958 and has not stopped expanding since. This month you will hear all about this re- markable Foundation through chats we will have with some of their great folks. Without their tireless fund raising eff orts we would not have the stellar health care facility with advanced equipment and knowledgeable people for the children of our province and surrounding areas. I was lucky enough to take a one year mat leave administrative assistant position for a surgeon at Children’s a number of years ago. It was crazy busy, sometimes frustrating and year. I was asked to stay after my year was painless and quick and takes all the bur- stressful but hands down the best year I’ve up but had already accepted a job in Vancou- den off your loved ones at a tough time in ever worked with the public.

  • Stu Davis: Canada's Cowboy Troubadour
    Stu Davis: Canada’s Cowboy Troubadour by Brock Silversides Stu Davis was an immense presence on Western Canada’s country music scene from the late 1930s to the late 1960s. His is a name no longer well-known, even though he was continually on the radio and television waves regionally and nationally for more than a quarter century. In addition, he released twenty-three singles, twenty albums, and published four folios of songs: a multi-layered creative output unmatched by most of his contemporaries. Born David Stewart, he was the youngest son of Alex Stewart and Magdelena Fawns. They had emigrated from Scotland to Saskatchewan in 1909, homesteading on Twp. 13, Range 15, west of the 2nd Meridian.1 This was in the middle of the great Regina Plain, near the town of Francis.

In 1920 they moved into Regina where Alex found employment as a gardener, then as a teamster for the City of Regina Parks Board. The family moved frequently: city directories show them at 1400 Rae Street (1921), 1367 Lorne North (1923), 929 Edgar Street (1924-1929), 1202 Elliott Street (1933-1936), 1265 Scarth Street for the remainder of the 1930s, and 1178 Cameron Street through the war years.2 Through these moves the family kept a hand in farming, with a small farm 12 kilometres northwest of the city near the hamlet of Boggy Creek, a stone’s throw from the scenic Qu’Appelle Valley.

When I reached exuberant spokesperson Ezra Ginsburg, a former student of Kelvin High School who holds an Arts degree from the HARVEY ROSEN University of Winnipeg and a Creative Communications diploma from Red River col- lege, it occurred to me that the articulate 28-year-old was either high, or high on life, or simply young and in love. Actually, the latter, except no dream girl was involved; rather his amour was an exciting new venture along with his three close buddies who now are into big-time all-sports radio, at 1290 on your AM dial. The station, CFRW, on the air since 1963, was best known for its popular morning and afternoon shows featuring Don Percy and Raccoon Carney, with a music format featuring primarily songs from yesteryear, dating back to the 50’s and 60’s. With a changing demographic, the target audience was no longer to be those who might appreciate the songs of Paul Anka, Roy Orbison, From left to right: MICHAEL REMIS, EZRA GINSBURG, RICHARD Kay Starr or The Four Aces.
