What do you want the government to tell you? The murder rate in Canada compared to other countries? I feel safe here in Canada.
Well something !! i mean seriously how many people can honestly say they know the amount of people being murdered really? And yeah i feel safe in certain parts of canada
Nothing really .....I have just recently started actually watching the news and I have been realizing that a lot of stuff that is...for lack of better vocabulary...bad. I mean all these murders and drug busts and gang related shootings I dont really feel safe. of course you guys may, different parts of canada are different but in most places this stuff is happining more and more often.
The news loves to report things like that. It's good for ratings. You always hear the bad stuff but it's not that much. I've never seen a drug bust and I've lived in Canada all my life. And if you do a bit of travelling, you'll notice how good we have it here.
As far as my own safety is concerned I feel okay. But I feel like i've noticed an increase in violent reports lately as well...There have been several high-profile drug busts in and around my area, and we're still talking about some murders that have happened recently here.

I see you're in Ottawa, try Hintonburg if you want to get in on the action.
Drug busts, hookers, bar fights - it's great!
God no! Lets just say I got back from B.C. and though I love Ottawa there's one thing I miss about B.C.
