the problem is that nobody is re placing these As the Side loses part of its population to the Small sooner or later the people moving from their farms will pass the result of this will be a depopulation of towns with nobody re placing the people who have passed away unless some Way can be found by which you could attract people from larger centres such As Winnipeg to move out into the

achievement Ana the highest level of expectations from their what it Means is that the Quality of life is not made up of its made up of family Job the level of pressure and stress they Are subjected to and so the people in Tuxedo have More of these stresses than the Man in the City they have More More they May have More family they would evaluate their position As being relatively a happier despite All the things they have around it follows that would be unhappy regardless of where they looking into Winnipeg who published a Book about the cites first Century a few years said he sees no danger of Winnipeg not grow although i can see the growth rate slowing Down during the next few Between 1971 and our growth rate dropped to of one per cent a year from about per cent meaning it would take 125 years for the City to double its instead of finding that people want to stay in growing Kuz Dis covered in countless interviews that they Are dissatisfied and want to leave to bigger
