Fordview Park - Not a tourist place to visit, Brantford, ON, Canada
We went to explore Fordview park but it`s not a worth visit. It is not a tourist place, people staying nearby can definitely come for a walk as it has the trail.

As any Law and Order addict knows, there are two groups that protect and represent the people, “the police who investigate crimes, and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders.” These are not their stories, however.
Instead, we’re here to focus on the nastier side of that story, namely, the cities where these crimes occur. Violent crime rates are a huge factor when determining where you want to move or visit, and understandably so. Washington D.C., Chicago and Detroit years had to fight against their public image as some of the most violent and crime-ridden areas in the United States, with notable improvements in several areas.
As the say, the first step in solving a problem is admitting you have one, so let this serve less as a list for public province shaming as a rehabilitative one.
That being said, let’s dive in and take a look at “the most violent cities in Canada,” according to the crime severity index.
Edmonton: Edmonton has been seeing some tough times as of late—and we’re not just talking about the Oilers. (Really, how many first round draft picks are they going to get?) Unfortunately, Edmonton’s crime rate is about as stagnant as their hockey team. The city has had a persistent problem with violent crime, especially sex-based crimes such as sexual assault, aggravated sexual assault, and sexual violations against children. That being said, Edmonton’s overall crime index rating is “only” 89.7—far lower than the others on this list.
Regina: Regina, ranks rather highly (or lowly, depending on how you look at it) when it comes to overall violent crime in Canada. It’s been trading places with Saskatoon the past few years, checking in with a 105.8 crime index rating. On the one hand, that’s definitely far too high, and hurts what is otherwise one of the more underrated settlement destinations in Canada. On the other hand, however, as Regina ranks just below Saskatoon this year, the latter’s loss is the former’s gain, as it can now report a “drop” in crime, at least in that context. Let’s hope that continues into the future, rather than the rumours of potential spikes that have been reported in the last year.
Saskatoon: Saskatoon’s placement on this list is something of a good news/bad news situation…let’s get the latter out of the way first, so we can end this section on a good note. To begin with, yes, with a violent crime index rating of 109.9. The city has flipped back and forth with Regina (see above) in the overall rankings, and has sometimes even found itself at the ignominious “top” of the standings. In the NHL, that wins you the Presidents’ Trophy. In the war on crime, that wins you an incredible amount of scrutiny. Thankfully, however, there are signs that Saskatoon is trying hard indeed to improve its record and reputation. In 2013, the mayor announced that overall violent crime in Saskatoon had dropped 9%, and there are hopes that that trend can continue.
Brantford, Ontario: Driving Around Downtown in November, 2017
We finally found a break in the rain to shoot this POV cruise around the downtown core of Brantford, Ontario on November 16, 2017. The video was taken with a dash mounted Go Pro Hero 5 Black.
Brantford is a city of 100,000 (135,000 metro) located in Southern Ontario, Canada. The city is 40 kilometres west of Hamilton and 104 KM southwest of Toronto. In the other direction, Brantford is 94 KM east of London.
Located on the Grand River, the city is nicknamed the 'Telephone City' for its famous historical resident, Alexander Graham Bell. It is also the birthplace of NHL hockey legend and member of the Hockey Hall of Fame, Wayne Gretzky.
Our route is simple, coming in on Brant Ave., we turn left on Colborne Street before coming back into downtown on Dalhousie Street. Once again meeting up with Brant Avenue, we turn left with Brant becoming Icomm Drive. The video ends with a right hand turn onto Market Street.

Dundas Valley Conservation Area Overview | Dundas Ontario Canada | Main Loop trail
Address: 650 Governors Road, Dundas, ON, L9E 5E3
Phone: Weekends: 905-627-1233 / Weekdays: 905-525-2181
The Dundas Valley is one of southern Ontario's most spectacular natural treasures. Highlights of the 1,200-hectare conservation area include lush Carolinian forests, colourful meadows, cold-water streams, stunning geological formations and an array of rare plants, birds and wildlife.
The area is part of a large glacial valley that spreads out into Lake Ontario. It was excavated by a succession of glaciers that disappeared some 10,000 years ago The landscape that emerged has been shaped by glacial melt water and, more recently, by streams flowing through the valley.
The rich natural environment existing here and along the Niagara Escarpment has been designated a World Biosphere Reserve by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
SIX NATIONS INDIAN RESERVE, ONTARIO, CANADA
This video is mostly for those in Canada, USA but especially outside NA who have never been on an Indian Reserve (or Reservation, two words, same meaning).
Apparently, as per Wikipedia as well, this particular Indian Reserve in the largest in entire Canada.
Downtown Six Nations Indian Reserve is the Village of Ohsweken, Ontario:
Indians do not pay any taxes on the Reserve, that includes sales tax, gas tax, property tax also outside their Reserve as well:
Not bad to be an Indian in Ontario, no idea about taxes for Indians in rest of Canada.
Gas prices are obviously very low on the Reserve, about 35c/liter ($1.2/gallon) lower than rest of Ontario, no gas taxes on the Reserve, that's why everybody who lives around the Reserve plus tourists who are aware of this place always stop by for a pretty cheap fill-up.
As you can see, locals have no problem with the word RED INDIAN, I personally spoken with a store owner near the gas station and she said she's very proud as being a Native INDIAN and she does not see the word as offensive in any way. We all know how (overwhelmingly) White Liberal Media AND White Liberals in generals brand you as racist when using this word, NBC/Bob Costas vs. Washington Red Skins the best example possible. Also how many ppl have been inside such Indian Reserve to know that Red Indian word is widely accepted by Native Indians.
YES, No Canadian Flag on the Reserve except for the Park along with American, British and their own flag, also they have their own Police, Fire, EMS Stations, so pretty much they consider themselves like an independent country.
The Reserve is located very close to Caledonia, Ontario, the place of ugly clashes btwn Indians and local white residents, OPP always being on the Indian's side, it's very politically incorrect to be against Indians nowadays.
Friendly advice to everybody going inside the Reserve: DO NOT SHOW ANY CANADIAN FLAG OR PRO-CANADIAN SIGN ON YOU AND/OR ON YOUR CAR. For your own sake of course.
At 06:23 in the video you'll see something extremely rare in Ontario and maybe in rest of Canada as well: a 65 KPH speed-zone sign, first time I've seen such sign in 20+ years of driving on Ontario roads.
So anytime you are around Hamilton, Ontario, feel free to visit the SIX NATIONS INDIAN RESERVE, never forget that anything you buy on the Reserve is TAX-FREE!!!
