Ya its a bit of a shithole, but its improved a lot over the last decade. It's not as bad as the rep.
Whalers? That was Buffalo NY lol.......But we do have Hudson Bay which is full of Whales. I don't think anyone hunts the whales, they're a tourist attraction. We don't let the japs into the bay to kill our whales.
It's called Jets because of some history of aviation, I'm too lazy to look into it.

Vancouver just lost their farm team, Moose are now Jets farm team, although they'll be relocated to Newfoundland or something.

One of the good things about Winnipeg...
In terms of income, Winnipeg ranks No. 5 among Canada's major cities. The jobless rate has dropped from 8.3 per cent when the Jets left in 1996 to five per cent in 2011. In addition, the average household income has jumped to $63,000.
5% unemployment is decent, not many cities with 800,000 people can claim that.
