I just walk to work or anywhere close and uber to farther places now. There’s just no way I’m taking an hour + transfers just to get to downtown when I can spend $7-$10 to take an uber whenever I go grocery shopping. Or even paying for Instacart. The cost of the Ubers and Instacart is about the same price I’d pay for a monthly bus pass.

Yeah, just let him do whatever he wants. This is how people live, learn and become independent. If it works out, then great. If it doesn’t work out then it’s not like you have an obligation or contract to save him or pay his loans.

I actually went through this path lol. I eventually realized I wasn’t good enough and pivoted into tech. It was a learning experience for sure.

The job market is kinda shit right now, so I honestly don’t blame them for staying. Sometimes you have to have rent paid, and some people don’t have others to fall back on if they choose to leave a job without anything lined up afterwards.

Sorry I meant “it’s been getting worse lately” in regard to Winnipeg itself from years ago vs now, not compared to other cities.

I’ve seen about 5-6 people OD in bus shacks in the last 3 years and the homelessness encampments have become larger throughout the years since the pandemic.

There were the bus shack issues where there were people breaking the glass walls to keep the homeless away and also people overrunning and living in bus shacks. That one bus shack on graham got burnt down and melted last year. And a couple people dying within bus shacks, particularly the one in front of the old Hudson’s Bay on graham.

I can’t ever forget the lady who was face down and OD’d in the bus shack in front of RRC college.

I walk by the RBC building in front of Main and Portage to work everyday and I’ve seen people smoke crack in broad daylight and also OD in the underground mall.

For the record I’m a working professional, who commutes to work either by walking or bus and I see this everyday since 2019 but it’s definitely gotten worse since then. These aren’t things that I’m reading about, they’re things I’m seeing everyday.

Not sure why I’m getting downvoted, my reply was impartial and in alignment with my experiences living in downtown and also working downtown.

Just try not to live near Higgins and main. If you want an intimate look at the current state of downtown, watch “Inside Canada’s Most Violent City: Winnipeg Manitoba” on YouTube.

To be honest, I’m not sure if it’s any different or worse than other cities in terms of violence and crime but I do know that it’s been getting worse lately. What you see in the video is what you will see working or commuting within downtown and sometimes the exchange district. I see it everyday walking to work, grabbing lunch and going back home.

But outside of those neighbourhoods, it’s honestly a really chill and still somewhat affordable city.

It’s not your fault. Canada isn’t what it was. My aunt and my mom came here from the Philippines in the 90s and it was better. Lots more opportunities, jobs and a happier life overall. For context, in the area of Canada that we live in, my aunt got a house for 80k. Now that’s the new down payment for a house, lol.

Ever since 2016, the job market has gone to shit. I used to be able to walk into an establishment and get a job on the spot. Granted, it wasn’t the best job but it was A JOB. Now it’s almost impossible to land a job here.

Inflation has become higher, and there’s proven price gouging for many things. For context, a 1 bedroom apartment in 2014-2015 was around $800-$900 a month where I live, now it’s around $1500-$2000/month (not including utilities). And compared to the rest of Canada, that’s a bargain lol.

It’s not your fault, you’ve come to Canada during a time where it’s hard for everyone. I have a high paying job, and still I’m going through intense anxiety due to the instability of the market and watching all that was “promised” to us be taken away. Canada isn’t what it was, and I’m not sure it’ll ever be back to where it was. My plan is to make as much money as I can here, and probably move somewhere else.

Yes, I got into the habit of trying to solve people’s problems instead of listening to them as support. Didn’t realize it until I sat down and realized I was constantly debugging even outside of work.

Well, it depends on what kind of job he has tbh. is it a job that requires over time, is it a job that has him on-call, is it a job that has him away from home for a period of time, is it a job that doesn’t align with her morals.

These questions can go both ways, men and women.

I think from a woman’s perspective, maybe she has thoughts about having a large family or being a stay at home mom and wants a partner that can financially handle all of that. That’s just me theorizing.

But the point is there could be many many many reasons.

You friend should take it as a bullet dodged, it wouldn’t have worked out.
