Every city has their own book of “unwritten rules”… things that are unique to us and something that outsiders might take a while to understand. We’ve compiled a list of unwritten Winnipeg rules most of us adhere too:
- Don’t even try to zipper merge… nobody knows how and the majority of people will not do it probably and you’ll be stuck waiting longer than if you just didn’t even try.
- It’s not a “bunny hug” it is a HOOD-IE… say it with me, HOODIE.
- Everyone love’s Dancing Gabe. He is a national treasure and we do not speak poorly of him ever.
- Even though it’s spelt like Toews… there is a silent V in there, and it’s pronounced “Taves”.
- Turn signals are more of a suggestion and less so something we actually use to safely communicate what we’re doing on the road.
- You don’t have to “own” a cabin in order to have one.
- Confusion corner isn’t actually confusing… we use it to weed “out the out of towners”
- Slurpee’s in the winter time are completely normal.
- Never admit that you don’t like Jeannes Cake.
- Winnipeg is the smallest big city in the country… everyone knows everyone so you have to be very careful who you bad mouth.
