I’ve lived in Manitoba all my life (I love Winnipeg!) & I can’t remember seeing shorts outdoors when it’s colder than -15c. I have, however, seen snow fall in June, and in September. I love the film-making scene here, and if you do too, definitely check out the Exchange district. And if you love theatre like I do, come in the 2nd half of July for the awesome Fringe Theatre festival, where you can see over a hundred different shows.

If you come for winter, I suggest the last two weeks of February. The days are getting longer and warmer and you can check out the Festival du Voyager, the second biggest winter festival in Canada celebrating the French pioneers, Metis and native fur trappers and traders who plied there trades along the banks of the Red and Assiniboine rivers and many other tributaries and lakes from Thunderbay to the the northern territories of Canada. It's a fun filled two weeks.

[@kellyparker5162]

Winnipegger here. Pretty decent video and good info *in general*. Couple of things: 1. Canada has two official languages, English & French. That’s why all signs in Canada are bilingual (by law). It’s not a Winnipeg thing. 2. Pretty close on the winter thing, but it left the impression that winter lasts until May. Not so. We usually get our snow that stays for the winter (as opposed to falling & melting) around the middle of Nov. and the spring melt usually starts in March. We’re usually golfing by mid-April. But yes, sometimes we’ll get a freak snow as late as June, but anything after mid-April just melts within an hour. Winters can have a couple of “cold snaps” each year that can last as long as 2 weeks, but those are the extremes. Usually not nearly that cold. The good news is, when it’s cold, it’s also brilliantly sunny, and the streets are bone dry. When it gets warm, it’s more cloudy, and the streets get messy. I prefer the cold, sunny days (within reason!). Go Jets Go!!!

[@eve-marie6751]

Actually Canada has three languages:- English, French, and "Poutine" (which however is not yet "official", right?). 😉

[@mrttrmmurat4708]

Is Winnipeg that bad and dangerous as other people mentioned?

[@jeffbguarino]

In the last 20 years it has warmed up and we get about 1 1/2 less months of winter. I know on Halloween , lots of times there was snow and it was cold and I have see it take until May for the snow to melt but not in the last 25 years. I worked outside on CN and froze at -25 many times on March 25. April was the month everything melted but now it is March. I have seen it snow in July once in the 1970's. It will continue to warm up. The more northern places will be warming up more. Florida will not notice any difference but northern Manitoba already has much warmer weather than in the past.

In August we have Folklorama, the largest and longest-running (54 years) multicultural festival of its kind in the world. 38 pavilions this year! The winters are cold but I guess I'm used to them. There is so much to do in winter to keep you warm, like the Festival du Voyageur, the largest Francophone event in Western Canada every February, Hé ho!!. Also, the normally 6km Nestaweya River Trail is loads of fun though we had such a mild winter this year that only one section opened at the end of January - this is where you'll see many of the spectacular warming huts.

True story. I bought a window unit air conditioner for our porch but I didn't get to use it until the THIRD SUMMER AFTER THAT, because the next two summers were cold and wet. There are good points to Winnipeg but I couldn't take the climate. The last straw was New year's eve, 2013/2014 when we made the news with the headline ... Winnipeg, colder than the surface of Mars. We moved to BC and now we get maybe 2 days a year where there's snow on the road, we traded minus 40 for plus 40 and never looked back. Winnipeg isn't for everyone.

Definitely need to be tough to live here.

See ya.

[@josephinakeam6197]

Not going to defend Winnipeg because I don't like living in the area...but plus 40 in B.C? No...

[@Religious_man]

@@josephinakeam6197 I'm American and I was never really aware it gets that hot in B.C. I know it often gets up to at least 26.5C in the summer in B.C. But 39C...how often is that in the Canadian prairies? I'm talking normal summer air temperature readings, not "climate change/global warming temperatures."

​@@Religious_man winnipeger here. Sorta depends, we've had some summers that are almost unbearably hot at 35c+ for a week or so. We've also had summers that don't ever get past 25. Also when a Winnipeger talks about the weather, it's not small talk. It's an actual conversation

And if you ever visit Winnipeg, you must order chicken tenders with honey dill sauce. It's a requirement.

Hi

[@garnieross9958]

I'm Canadian. Where is "the six"? Manitoba has nicer summers than most of the US. Lived here for 70 years and very very seldom see anyone wearing shorts in winter. I have but not common. Ontario is a Province not a city. Toronto is the capital of Ontario. Love our Philipinos.

The 6 (or the 6ix) is the nickname for Toronto, because of the six municipalities making up Metro Toronto
