What local operating fact should an event team verify in Winnipeg?

Winnipeg is the only major metro for hundreds of kilometres: Regina is roughly a 5.5-hour drive west, Thunder Bay about 8 hours east, and Fargo, North Dakota a border crossing to the south, so Winnipeg's event crew pool is entirely local, with no neighbouring-city bench to backfill from on short notice.
