A morning walk in Hamilton Ontario located 68 kilometers away from Toronto. The city has been attracting more Torontonians in the last few years due to the high housing prices in the city of Toronto. Unfortunately, the city struggles with issues such as homelessness and drug usage, which is easily noticeable in the downtown area.

Downtown was awesome in the 80's.
That was before The Meadowlands and Limeridge Mall took all the shops and customers.
Anyone remember Tony's Corner? It was Greek food place and was open until 4 am.
i lived in downtown Hamilton for over a year and witnessed some of the most horrendous, disgusting conditions and people. My building was infested with cockroaches and bed bugs. Wife and I fled like refugees as soon as we financially could.
Smart choice! wtg!
I loved the down town in the 60s and 70s ..It was alive
You forgot to highlight all the tent cities in city parks. Hamilton's mayor seems to think this is a good solution for the homeless problem.
I agree with what others have said here: Hamilton downtown in the 1980's was the last time it was a GREAT Vibrant City!
It was a whole other world and time then too, but I sure think of those days fondly.. :)
Lots of good paying jobs back then too.
@@user-og2wt3le4j Yes! In the 1980's, I only saw TWO homeless people downtown- that was for the entire decade! But we had a strong private *and* public sector, not just for Hamilton, but for all of Canada. The unions and regular workers had proper coverage back then.
💯 like I said in my post above! I remember one hobo stood out in the early 80s "You gooooot any spare change" lol and he smelt like whiskey 😂 but seriously there was him and maybe 1-2 others and that's all I ever saw
Lived here 34 years and i still dont like going downtown.
It's been rough there. I understand.
I don't blame you. I have to use the library and some other services downtown. I have seen violence even in Central library. Too many homeless and untreated mentally ill persons. There have been recent stabbings and shootings downtown, which I never heard of 30 years ago.
This looks like a walk in the park..try Winnipeg.
Grew up here, the downtown was good until the early 90s now it is just a disaster haven’t shopped down there in over 20 years, can’t believe how bad it has gotten.
there was one pan handler and one addict in the whole video.
Plus all the crime and homelessness doesn't help. There is a lot of condo construction going on downtown. Not many great shops anymore.
The Mobilty Scooter Capital of Canada .
At 14:36. That's the old Scottish Rite hall, temple of freemasonry. They film some movies and television shows there including Murdoch Mysteries.
Thanks for the video. I've got a glimpse of what it looks like at present. I've been living in Hunter St. From 2004 up to 2008.
You're very welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for the video!👍👍
You're welcome. Thanks for watching 👍
A good video, man! Thank you for sharing. I never visit this city. Maybe I will go to visit in summer. Good job man. I watch your video from Ottawa. U get a new follower.😁👍
I appreciate it so much, brother!!
Such creative videos you’ve on this channel. I just subscribed!
Thank you so much!!
Grew up in Hamilton. Haven't been back for maybe almost 20 years. It has it's pros and cons. Amazing geographical location but economic development hasn't been kind overall. Could have been the jewel of Ontario.
I live downtown, I never feel unsafe. Yes there are some unhoused with addiction issues. But many have undiagnosed and untreated mental illness. What I usually find is a warm and caring people. Who take the time to chat and say hi. I find it curious why the videographer walked straight after James st north. Instead of turning down into the super crawl that was going on. one of Ontario's premier art festivals.
I am not trying to portray Hamilton negatively. I have other videos where I walk on the trail and the Dundurn area.
Toronto is literally worse than Hamilton in terms of the amount of drug addicts and mentally ill homeless people.
Funny because I see crazy people every single day smoking meth right out in the open and fighting
Lived there in 2002 and 2003. It was really good. Went to Bennetto school. Missed Hamilton. I'm thinking of going back there in the future.
It looks kind of grungy. Growing up in St. Catharines, we used to go to Hamilton Place to watch the annual Christmas show. I haven't been back since I was a kid.
St. Catharines also has its problems in the downtown core.
I currently work here and was surprised by so many drug addicts,looks more like a city in the US
True. The situation in Hamilton is similar to other blue-collar US cities where jobs relocated.
You mean like any other cities in North America?
Canada is worse than the US - have a look at any Vancouver DTES video - there are literally dead bodies lying in the streets. Seriously - there was a video (perhaps scrubbed by youtube now) of some girl lying dead in an alley on a bright sunny day; no cops, no paramedics, no nothing. And she wasn't the only one. #HarmReductionMyAss
Without the broken down camper vans on the sides of roads.
It's kind of gone back to looking dumpy again.. But I still think Hamilton was worse in the 1990's.. YIKES!
James Street is an interesting case, because now the North end of James- right down to Burlington Street,
is the decent and cleaned-up section, whereas James South is the dirty/sketchy area.. For SO long it was
the opposite! James North was the place to avoid, and James South was the civilized area (around Durand)..
I Really Like what's been done with James North- keeping and maintaining small businesses and older
neighbourhoods.
Do you remember all the baby mamas with kids in strollers late at night? I think they closed all the bars downtown which helped clean up the core. There is still a problem with street people and fights at the library and mall.
Once my favourite place to be on a Saturday not wanted to be there since Eatons closed in the 80s.... it went rapidly down hill.
Eaton's closed in 2000. They tried another department store (Hart) but that never took off. Now the whole Eaton Centre is closed for a condo project.
Hamilton was a nice city in the sixties when I was a teenager, but now it is a mess. Grimy and dirty. The city urban planners over the years ruined Hamilton. The first opportunity to leave I took and never looked back.
I've walked this route many times. 🙂
Looking for crack?
@@jameskashmankashman3355 😅
Its definitely not the downtown I grew up in late 70s-80s with the neon arcade signs, the old movie theaters, McD's at John and King, and all the stores, Robinsons, Eatons etc the underground washrooms in Gore Park, Ice skating in Jackson Square.We had the odd hobo here and there that were drunks, but nothing like today
Can’t be worse than downtown Vancouver 😅
My brother lives in Vancouver. Hamilton looks like Hawaii compared to Vancouver.
SHOW OFF THE BEAUTIFUL CITY 2 THE WORLD
I used to live on Cannon Street East loved the HAMMER
Do they really call it the Hammer. Never heard of that when I grew up there. Maybe it's a west end thing? It's relatively a recent name for the town. The only person I ever heard refer to it like that was in Toronto from someone who had friends in Hamilton. I grew up off of Barton St. right by where the old Fairfield school used to be. Gone now. Sad.
I haven't been back to Hamilton since 2019 I miss it
Hey there. I have more videos of Hamilton ruclips.net/video/h_vWgkWhIgU/видео.htmlsi=LFLTXv3MHkS2k44R. Subscribing and liking these videos is deeply appreciated.
@@DiscoveringDestinations90 I lived East Ave N @ Wilson St loved being right across from a nice park
The guy on the flute thing, literally playing the same thing over and over and over and over again LOL😅
I swear that was the donkey kong music from the underwater level
@@MrRocca baahhahaaaa
❤❤❤❤❤
I love this video show more ❤
Thank you so much! I sure will!
yep home
You have videos on Jane and finch? I I know you have some of T.O but wanted to know if u have any of that area
Hi. I sure do ruclips.net/video/4ZchjoKGQXY/видео.htmlsi=Sps04fOg9SVXU7-4
@@DiscoveringDestinations90 ok thanks! 🙏
It was pretty dumpy back in the 1990s. Things gradually got nicer up until 2019, and the downtown was becoming safer and more developed. But, the Covid situation erased all of that. The homelessness isn't apparent in this video, but in other parts of Hamilton, its worse than ever. Drug use and dealing goes rampant and unpunished in Hamilton. Public defecation is now a brand new concern. Watch out for discarded needles!
Plus all those tent cities Horvath sees as a solution to the homeless problem.
If I'm not mistaken Hamilton Ontario is the city where activist Erin Janus lives.😊
Thanks a lot, Torontonians. Your moves to Hamilton have resulted in jacked up housing prices. A native Hamiltonian can no longer an entry level home when it is priced at $750,000 and higher.
I don’t think torontonians are the problem…
I'm proud to live in a city that's unique, lived-in, history-filled, artisitic and, yes, a little rough around certain edges (keep an eye out for the Morlocks after dark and you should be alright :P). Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses, the teeming refuse of your small towns and stodgy suburbs (the way things are going, that'll be half the country soon enough). Welcome to the Steel Colossus!
Got any footage of Hamilton from the 70's,80's or 90's ? What about Hess Street from early 90's ?
Hi Mike. I don't have a video of Hess Street, but I have a video of a nice trail and the Dundurn neighborhood ruclips.net/video/h_vWgkWhIgU/видео.htmlsi=hA-y3HuaUeRgoCqz
@@DiscoveringDestinations90 Ok Thanks. I check it out
This was filmed just before Super Crawl in September 2023. That festival used to attract fairly decent music acts. The quality has declined in recent years.
8:15 - Starting here: It's OK, feel free to slow the video to 0.25 or 0.5.. (exit stage right)
Steeltown ! 👍
Canada's Pittsburgh.
This city is so noisy. I've been there for a little wild, and i have to say all's around the neighbours is much quieter
Ultimate city in all of Canada. Also the king of waterfalls. God bless Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you for the video. I don t like this place, dirty and many homeless people. The exception was the Masonic Center.
Thank you for watching. I have other videos of Hamilton, also ruclips.net/video/h_vWgkWhIgU/видео.htmlsi=WFnP8SnWuXkAZeNN. Subscribe to my channel if you like my videos ❤️
Hamilton isn’t the city it used to be and is getting worse everyday it’s sad!
Purps central
all the buskers are too nodded out, wheres that peruvian flute music coming from? (nevermind, i see now)
Ashame it’s so disgusting with lowlifes and homeless everywhere. Government gives too much and this is what you end up with
This is what happens when people give up and can't pay their bills no matter how hard they try, where is all the money going too, I know but we are not allowed to say because it is anti you know what
Bro Hamilton has that vibe that literally nowhere else including Toronto has I seriously don’t get it… it feels detached from reality 😂😂😂
still beats living with east indians
hamilton ---steel town canada -should have a nhl team -------great canadians
Sorry to destroy your bubble. When the NHL expanded (Tampa and Ottawa got franchises). Hamilton was in the running but there was no person or group that was willing to own the team, and therefore put the expansion fees. Hamilton folks complain it was the Leafs that kept them out, but no one wanted to own a team in Hamilton.
i bet it's worse now
It looks very bad.
It is, and worse.
People don't look happy at all. It's like a depression era.
Nice park in the middle but unfortunately is mostly occupied by hobos
RUclips broadcaster can be a lucrative side hustle 😮.
⁰mb
Same shit different city
There is no there there.
Generational Hamiltonians are the ones who are the most desperate for downtown Hamilton to not change
looks like a total dump
yup
diaster
Hamilton Sucks i wish i lived in Montreal or literally anywhere else in southern Ontario.
I lived in Montreal for a year... it wasn't the greatest experience I must say, and I can speak a decent amount of French. Montreal can be a great city to visit, but living there can be another thing. Get a good feel for it to see if it really is for you before you make a big move is my best advice!
Canada's Communist Manifesto is working! 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳😢😢😢
Capitalistic corporations you mean.
What a dump.
What a toilet.
This what happens when you vote Liberal
look at all the cell phone zombies -lol
first thing you see at jackson square is a crackhead slumped over on the side of the road
Fentanel not crack
Everyone in their mobility scooters
People should come together as a whole, liberals, conservatives and fix the problems they themselves created. Conservatives just almost always point fingers and complain,do something.
