Should of gone east not west...98% of the homeless are in east London. East of Adelaide & Dundas is most openly visible crisis area but keep going east to Argyle and there's hundreds of encampments tucked away. Argyle by far has the most dense homeless population in crisis but they've adapted to hidden tent communities.....but the Popeyes he did walked by if he went behind it one frame would of captured 15 20x more homeless people then this whole video....... London needs extensive help this video doesn't do justice to the real reality.
As a londoner for 42 years of my 48 years it's sad to see downtown as bad as it is remember galleria mall Eatons it used to be so great old Covent garden market dave London ontario Canada ❤ 🇨🇦
I'll go back further.... Ready for a timewarp? Simpsons, Seaguls shoes, Kingsmills. But yeah, Eatons and the galleria with movie theater was great. Market Pet Shop.... With Mac the parrot. A donut shop that made the absolute best massive apple fritters on Saturday mornings. This might be going back to the early 80s. It felt fun and safe..... Such a shame that department stores, Simpsons, Eatons, Sears took a nose dive.
I am from London originally. It is such a shame what London has turned into! It used to be a safe haven for families and students, yet it is now overrun by the homeless.
This is a great video and thank you for making it. I am in London about twice a year and I always tell certain homeless people that they can utulize free trains that go to Toronto and Windsor.
It's a different place there these days. I visited friends there awhile back and I couldn't believe the number of homeless. It's disconcerting as well, because some will literally make a straight line to your car and beg for help. I admit that I lock my doors. They look angry and distraught at the same time. Understandable and London needs to make more social housing, or reopen the old psychiatric ward in Saint Thomas. Having these homeless on just about every single major intersection in London was a shocker and not at all, the London I remember. Simpsons, Seaguls shoes, Kingsmills..... To what? Fanshawe campuses..... Downton London used to be attractive....
I’ve lived downtown on Dundas right across from the music hall since 2016, it’s crazy to see how much it’s declines in such short of a time. Most of the homeless are friendly humans just trying to survive. I once had a 15yr old ask if I wanted any meth tho, that was sad and fucked at the same time. I constantly am walking over bodies trying to get in my front door too. The first time I finally ordered food delivery , I came outside to a guy bleeding from The neck after being stabbed. Ive seen people fingering their own assholes screaming to get the demons out. I have a treasure chest of videos from outside my kitchen window of the most wildest shit humans are capable of.
should make one of Dundas and Adalaide thats where it really is. cant even walk with your kids without having to worry about weather or not they are going to inhale junkie fumes or homeless people are all over the side walk its not B.C but its gotten bad over the years
I'm living in London for almost 5 years. The last 2 years is a disaster - covid lockdown and unemployment and high housing price forced many onto the streets. It's a beautiful city - city has to do better handling homeless people.
Always keep your windows up travelling downtown. That was crazy hearing hearing some regular guy get stabbed on Oxford and Piccadilly while waiting for train to pass. Than homeless person got on the bus stole it and rammed into White Oaks Mall.
Dundas st East, Wellington and Hamilton road... Richmond Row is students.... I Have been in London for 33 yrs, it's a shithole. It's bad, 8f and when I am able to....see ya....
For someone who has lived in this city for 65 years I watch this and can't believe the state of downtown...all the money spent on Dundas Street for what???!! To look pretty? This is unbelievable. Our city went to hell after the closing of Wellington Square Mall..this is embarrassing.
There’s no nicer urban areas really. Nicer neighborhoods maybe but in terms of somewhere where you can go and do stuff in pretty much everywhere has the same problems with homelessness and drugs.
Westmount area is nice lived here for 3yrs not a single problem. I go for daily walks or jogs along walking trails it beautiful everyone always says hi or good morning or does some acknowledgement. Makes me feel better about living in this city.
I am somewhat one of those people that are somewhat fearful of going downtown London Ontario. But what annoys me the most or a better word to use pisses me off the most anywhere from the area of Budweiser gardens all the way eastbound on Dundas east of Adelaide I get hit up for money or cigarettes anywhere between 8 to 12 times a day or I should say when I do go downtown. That’s what annoys me. One of the things that annoys me I should say. And a lot of these panhandlers are very young between the ages of 25 and 30 that appear to have absolutely nothing physically or mentally wrong with them. But no matter what sad situation all around for London Ontario
It's definitely uncomfortable when multiple people ask you for money on the street. Makes you feel unsafe at times and more or less, want to avoid the area
So I have to ask..what was the point of taking pics and video of random homeless people? It kinda comes across as shaming them. I'd just like to mention that you walked by 2 people who I know,and they are homeless but weren't sitting on the ground or standing around so you walked right by. No one wants to be homeless. I hope on your way out of London you stopped and made a donation at one of the many places that helps them.
I asked them if it was ok to film and they said yes and trust me I know them 2 iv been homeless and in and out of jail most of my life I also buy them food and more I'm not making any money off them and it cost me money to make the video and iv never got one dollar and I was born in London
I wasn't trying to come across as a b*tch. I'm very grateful that you exposed the issue in the right way. Bless you for buying them food as well. I've also been homeless and too many people look the other way or say get a job. My son just moved to London and it breaks my heart to see what it's become in the years since I lived there. Hit me up if you ever want someone to go with you to hand out food or other stuff. have a great night.
@@luvmyboxers72 but you are he was just showing how bad it's gotten and this day that he is shooting is actually a good day compared to what it usually is I have lived downtown 16 years and it's at its worst right now

For the people that don't know London this man avoided taping where most of the homeless people hang out.
Where is that Troy, what area?
@@DoloresMitchell vic park
@@SaucySauce420 dundas and adelaide to egerton, vic park area, and now the math junkies have spread out to all the corners
Downtown London Dundas and Adelaide is where most of the service are for the homeless...

So sad down there. A ghost town. Noone seems to be there doing much of anything. Poor business owners
Downtown London has been a horrible place since the mid 80's.

Why don't you show down Dundas east and King Street downtown
I do just not in this video because I was going to make a part 2 but in my old streams I go there all the time

lived here all my life and yes i agree with you...; (sick & sad ) ;
I used to go to spaghetti eddy restaurant in 1993 with parents.. back then I thought there were adults in this world

Someone pls name another city of over 500,000 that has a CN main line run thru the heart of the city
Calgary
There’s several. Is this a quiz or?
It’s so empty! Where are the people? Is it too early?too hot?

The one being filmed is one of the nicer areas really
Wortley Village is really nice.

my old school is near victoria park and there is so many homeless there and also whenever i walk there i see so many syringes

Doesn’t really matter what appears to be wrong with them though
Black cats, black cats, black cats, that's all I want to see, are those wonderful black cats..., must be a lot of them after 22 years..., black cats!
Need to film at night and also along Dundas between Adelaide to Ontario St.... piles of shit in areas... smh
I’ve lived here my whole life it used to thrive now look at it
I think when you lose anchors like Simpsons, Eatons, Kingsmills, Market Pet Shop, etc... It just isn't the same.
I’m from “out west” and have been living in London for a bit now. All towns around Ontario are just like this. Pretty ghetto
This depressed me
Dundas E is where all the real action is
truth
off highburry then onto dundas
You should do an update video now with some talking in the video
Tanya Mcceachran Scott slept with my husband and works for Thames Valley District School Board
Man brantford worse i think than alot of places
This is nothing compared to what it is now. Please do an updated video. This is nothing
Get a bulldozer scoop them up
Good call. Totally logical
DON'T FEED THE ANIMALS ... problem solved.

This video trys to make london look bad. Every large city has a homeless population. Get over youself bud.
London is pretty crappy. I’ve lived lots of places and you can’t leave anything here unattended for 1 minute. Calgary was less sketchy
