I would like to add crime stats for Canada for 2009 , since sometimes we hear a concern of going to downtown hamilton

http://news.ca.msn.com/canada/cp-article...

1 Regina 3 Winnipeg 5 Edmonton 8 Vancouver 14 Montreal 18 Calgary 24 Hamilton 31 Toronto....Ottawa was ranked 27

Every CFL team has a crime rate higher than Hamilton except Toronto. Regina and Winnipeg are always near the top and 4 of the worst are out west and rank 1-3-5 and 8. Regina sells out every game, Winnipegs crowds are pretty decent and Edmonton tradionally has the largest crowds. Bottom line the fact people are 'afraid" to come to Hamilton is a bit much. I bet if you asked every one of them which is safer hamilton or regina...they would pick regina but regina and winnipeg have held that title for years. It's the same thing with Toronto, well i got news for people for a city that size its amazingly safe and always has been. Also for 9 years in a row Saskatchewan has the highest crime rate for provinces...Ontario had the lowest for 3 years in a row.
