[Ashurii03]

'peg city!! wooo!! XD man i wish i was there... i'd sing along :p

[MARILYN441]

I love it even if it wasn't in sync. Love those Manitobans. Wish I still lived there.

[klosch84]

I LOVE my city :D

[tgan71]

This reminds me of elementary school back in the 70's. Being forced to listen to the lord's prayer, even though not religious. Although sounds good, I would not appreciate the religious overtones interrupting my commercialized holiday shopping!

[tunderbar04]

@tgan71

You are living in a predominantly Christian country. Deal with it. If I were living in Israel or a Muslim country, how tolerant would they be if I were to bitch about their traditions or religious celebrations? Be happy that you can go home and celebrate your beliefs without being persecuted. People like you had better start understanding what religious freedom really means.

This is very certaintly the most jollyest thing in a long time! I'd saw tryhards at walmart this morning. You friggen fools. But the thought was there at least. And merry Christmas

"I love all of you hurt by the cold,

Too bad ur not a 'pegger' too

Cause we're efficiently bold

[9braedyn]

A most beautful song For the beautifully strong As we watch cities close down Cause of just a little snow We ARE Winnipeg Our conditioning makes us the heart of a continent, As does, The heart of a Winnipegger, The collective soul, Our best will always be available Being also the most generous place on earth As well rounded as us 'peggers are To those around the world We remain humble Meegwetch

[TheGalacticFox]

Woot! That's us, just the carroling Manatobans!

[chrishuget]

LOL @ 1:13

[ronmann606]

the most exciting thing that ever happened in winnipeg...you can't even drink in the casino there. Well I'm at it quit making pennies already nobody wants them.

[rpareyon]

.... the sound isn't in sync... Fishy..

[ChrisD204]

@rpareyon That's on purpose, as to not cut up the song while the camera was moving around the room to capture as many people as possible.

[rpareyon]

@ChrisD204 ahhh okay thanks. I thought that multiple cameras were used, and the video was just badly edited. Thanks for clearing it up though.

[icelandicigs]

@ChrisD204 this makes it practically unwatchable

[wetchicken2007]

Mob? Like in bad guys?

Not here - this was wonderful! Merry Christmas!

[wpniabbc]

Did you see all those people who are offended by Christmas. Not.

[ZahawBaran]

Kind of odd, this is a public place where people from all religious and cultural origins are sharing a space and you go and advertise your religious identification which might not be as welcome. Not a good move to impress a diverse Winnipeg population.

[wetchicken2007]

@ZahawBaran - I guess no one should do anything. Some cultures do not allow eating in the presence of strangers, so the whole food court is inappropriate. It's Christmas, lighten up!

[Rubylou007]

@ZahawBaran - I'm wondering how anyone will know that we have a rich and culturally diverse population if we all hide it so as not to "offend" anyone else. I, for one, feel no slight or insult when given the opportunity to witness such a joyful cultural or religious expression, of any kind. That is what makes Winnipeg the beautiful city it is, the freedom to express and acceptance of others' cultural diversity.

[CountTheReasons]

LOL i was at work when this happened. im suprised i didnt hear it!

[mattsboring]

i especially appreciate the people who look scared.

[roxyusher]

Anemic copycat of the Welland stunt. Try something original next time.

[KarlHeinzofWpg]

I was there and it was a wonderful performance. Hard for a video to do it justice.

[porourke1]

What an amazing gift to give to all those fortunate enough to be there.

[Laserwpg]

You need to do this at St Vital Centre  too! Excellent love it :)

[Oswaldamar]

I missed this by like 20 minutes. Seriously sucks. Awesome performance.

[musicallysmitten]

Chris, I noticed that the audio and video on this was out of sync. Did you edit the video which was taken from the other youtube flash choir video? anyway, great job. It was nice for you to get that closup of that woman who was intensely moved by the singing and/or spiritual experience.
