I grew up in Ottawa and was going to try and name a place but couldn't think of one either.
I'd say the same for Vancouver or Victoria.
too many bicycles are stolen in vancouver to wholeheartedly agree with you on that one.
Property crime is commonplace in Vancouver, given that we've always been the heroin capital of North America. Violent crime like muggings, however, are very rare. The addicts are not confrontational.
