We’ve told you about some of the underrated immigration destinations in Canada, now check out our list of places prospective Canadians should avoid: the poor places, the racist places, the isolated places, the depressing places, the worst of the worst! Naturally, the tiny towns in the woods of Northern Ontario or the southern shore of Newfoundland would be the worst of the worst, but let’s be reasonable. Here are list of towns and cities with a substantial population (at least 5000 residents) that might seem like a decent idea to a prospective immigrant interested in a slower pace of living.

High crime rate? Check.
High unemployment? Check.
High cost of living? Check.
Limited access to services? Check.
High property taxes? Check.
Bad weather? Check.
Despite being a small, quaint city just a few hours from Halifax, New Glasgow tops polls of the worst places to live in Canada. How could those 10,000 people stand it? They must have all been born there.
In 2009 New Glasgow ranked 36th out of 208 in StatsCan's crime severity index. The crime rate increased from 2011 to 2012, and was significantly higher than the provincial average.
In 2006, New Glasgow had an unemployment rate of 7.7%. It has decreased since then and, as of the 2011 census, it was 5.7%, or slightly lower than the provincial average.
The cost of living in New Glasgow was estimated by one website to be 4% higher than the cost of living in New York City, but only 30.3% of those reporting say their households earn more than $60,000 Canadian per year (after taxes).
Property tax in New Glasgow was higher than the average in Nova Scotia and significantly higher than Halifax up to and including 2013.
Climate
New Glasgow receives 1212 cm of precipitation per year (that's more than Vancouver).
2. Kitchener - Waterloo, Ontario

Congratulations, Kitchener / Waterloo, you are the hate crime capital of Canada! Despite hosting two universities and a massive tech company campus, the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge tri-city area experiences a high per capita rate of verbal and physical assaults on ethnic, religious and gay minorities. Despite its location in the highly diverse Southern Ontario region, Kitchener has inherited the mantle from the previous main offender, Calgary.
In 2011 Kitchener-Waterloo was surpassed by Peterborough, Hamilton and Ottawa in police-reported hate crimes, however the rate remained at nearly double the national average.
3. Thetford Mines, Quebec
The third of the three rogues’ gallery dwellers is poor Thetford Mines, the heart of Quebec’s asbestos mining region and the winner of the title Most Polluted City in Canada. Despite the overwhelming evidence of the dangerous health effects of asbestos, Canada still mines the dangerous mineral, and the biggest mine in a populated area is in Thetford Mines.
4. Bay Roberts, Newfoundland

Many, many other rural communities on the east coast could make this list, but Bay Roberts appears because it has the highest unemployment rate in Canada, at 17%. Despite the oil, gas, mining and hydro-power booms in Newfoundland, Bay Roberts has somehow managed to avoid the job benefits. This wouldn’t seem so peculiar if Bay Roberts wasn’t just an hour’s drive from money-drunk St. John’s and other rapidly expanding bedroom communities like Conception Bay South.
The unemployment rate has improved as it was 20.7% in 2006
5. Sarnia, Ontario

Sarnia itself may not be so bad, but its view of and proximity to American heavy industry helps to reinforce the fact that this border town is polluted. It also has an empty downtown and a shrinking population.
6. Saint John, New Brunswick

Long known as the unglamourous milltown cousin to its apostrophic neighbour to the east, St. John’s, Saint John is a dirty, stinky pulp and paper port on the Bay of Fundy. Despite the natural beauty nearby, the city has a declining population and few economic opportunities outside of the paper mills, nuclear power plant, and small university satellite campus. Don’t end up in Saint John when you want to live in St. John’s!

Top 10 MOST DANGEROUS Cities in Canada
Top 10 Most Dangerous Cities in Canada
Here is a list of the 10 most dangerous cities in Canada, by h0m!c!de rate per 100,000 (based on 2015 statistics):
Total number of mvrd3rs in Canada in 2014: 521 (rate of 1.47 per 100,000). Number in 2015: 604 (rate of 1.68 per 100,000)
10. Vancouver, British Columbia (47 mvrd3rs, rate of 1.88 per 100,000 in 2015)
Canada's 3rd largest city and the country's gateway to the Pacific, Vancouver is known for its beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, Vancouver is also has a reputation for drvgs and g@ng v!ol3nce.
9. Halifax, Nova Scotia (8 mvrd3rs, rate of 1.91)
Halifax, on the east coast, is the biggest city in Maritime Canada and the capital of the province of Nova Scotia.
8. Victoria, British Columbia (In 2015, Victoria had 8 mvrd3rs, a rate of 2.19 per 100,000.)
Located on Vancouver Island, just off the mainland, Victoria is the capital of the province of British Columbia.
7. Saint John, New Brunswick. (In 2015, Saint John had 3 mvrd3rs, a rate of 2.36 per 100,000.)
Saint John (not to be confused with St. John's, Newfoundland) is located on the Bay of Fundy in the Maritimes. It is one of New Brunswick's biggest cities. But economic decline in recent decades has led to a shrinking population.
6. Thunder Bay, Ontario. (In 2015 Thunder Bay had 3 mvrd3rs, a rate of 2.48 per 100,000.)
Thunder Bay is a transport hub and port on Lake Superior in northwest Ontario. The city overtook Winnipeg as Canada's most h0m!c!dal city in 2012, but by 2015 it was no longer Canada's most mvrd3rous city.
5. Calgary, Alberta. (In 2015 Calgary had 39 mvrd3rs, a rate of 2.70 per 100,000.)
Calgary is the economic capital of the western province of Alberta, much of its wealth coming from oil and gas drilling in the province. This energy-based economy has lent itself to boom-and-bust cycles, depending on the rise and fall of oil and gas prices.
4. Winnipeg, Manitoba (In 2015 Winnipeg had 22 mvrd3rs, a rate of 2.72 per 100,000.)
Winnipeg, the capital and largest city of the province of Manitoba, has long had a bad reputation for cr!me and v!ol3nce. It has often held the dubious title of Canada's most murderous city, but in 2015, it only ranked 4/10.
3. Edmonton, Alberta (In 2015, Edmonton had 39 mvrd3rs, a rate of 2.87 per 100,000.)
Alberta's other major city after Calgary, Edmonton is also the capital of the province. It is known as the home of the West Edmonton Mall, the biggest shopping centre in North America.
2. Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (In 2015, Saskatoon had 10 mvrd3rs, a rate of 3.22 per 100,000.)
The biggest city in the wheat-growing western prairie province of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, is also one of Canada's most v!ol3nt cities per capita.
1. Regina, Saskatchewan (In 2015, Regina had 8 mvrd3rs, a rate of 3.30 per 100,000.)
The capital of the province of Saskatchewan, Regina had the highest h0m!c!de rate in Canada in 2015.

Canada is a pretty safe country. Like anywhere else, it has its share of crime. But, for the most part, you're unlikely to be a victim of random v!ol3nce if you use basic common sense, like avoiding bad neighbourhoods, not getting into arguments in bars, and not showing off lots of money or valuables (especially in poorer areas).
Here is a list of Canada's top 10 most d3@dly cities and towns (in terms of h0m!c!de rates per capita). Some of these towns are fairly small, so even having a relatively small number of k!ll!ngs can give them high h0m!c!de rates by Canadian standards.
Overall, h0m!c!de rates tends to be higher in western and northern Canada (the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and the territories of Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon), and lower in the central and eastern provinces (Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador). Toronto, the biggest city in the country, is also one of the safest. At the other end of the spectrum, Winnipeg is one of the most v!ol3nt of Canada's bigger cities.

A Tourist's guide to Port-au-Prince, Haiti
With some trepidation, I fly into the Haitian capital. My guide picks up me up and then whips me through some Port-au-Prince's highlights.
Sights include the Iron Market, the voodoo statues in the Hotel Oloffson, the earthquake damaged cathedral, Place Jean-Jacques Dessalines, Place du Marron (home to some great statues), the view of the colourful hillside homes and the observatory, which offered a great view of the city.
All in all, a great trip, fuelled by a touch of apprehension and sprinkled with a dash of excitement. If you can ignore the huge amounts of trash, and the sheer amount of chaos, then Port-au-Prince might be the place for you.
