no way.  Winnipegers drive too slow.  Partly by design (crappy roads)
and just partly because they just do.  
How fast do they seem to go?
Manitoba highways: 90 unless it's snowing - then it's 100.
Saskatchewan highways: 110+
Alberta highways: 125+
Ontario highways: 135+
Downtown Montreal: 0 or 140+
California: 85+ (mph)
Nevada: 90+
And those crazy fools in Memphis: 95+ in a 55 zone last time
I drove through there... was getting passed by grannies in Town
Cars at 100mph.
