    I lived there for 35 years. I moved in 2021 after selling the house I bought in 2008 for $209 thousand for $ 899 thousand! It was a seller's market and I had to move for work. I enjoyed my time there but do not miss the never-ending LRT fiasco and expropriation of buildings that were still empty when I visited this past summer. I do miss a lot of the different food options ... no German food where I am now. Thank you for your video and the memories ✌

    The HMCS Haida is the LAST Tribal Class Destroyer in the world. It's an amazing, rare opportunity to experience such a vessel and they have Navy vets as well as Parks staff to answer questions. Next door to the Haida at CFB Hamilton is the 31 Service Battalion Museum which houses the largest display of Canadian Women's Army uniforms in the country (CWAC). It's small, but it's a hidden gem with rare army artifacts you would have trouble finding anywhere else.

    Finally I cool channel about Canada stuff that goes straight to the point, not like many out there making drama about their own life. Thanks for sharing this. Have been living in this city for some years and although I have been like in 60% of the places you presented, you pointed out missing gems that I still need to explore. The biohazard times has prevented me to learn more about this city and I see the time I have missed. Thanks again! All the best bro! Cheers!

    Both my parents were born in Hamilton, and I was born in Hamilton and lived there till like i was 2 years old, then moved and grew up in Grimsby. I moved around a lot with my family, but I have now lived in Dunnville for 16 years, and i still visit Grimsby and Hamilton.

    You did a fantastic job with this video. I go to Hamilton every year and you showed me some attractions I didn't even know about. Also, you gave a very fair assessment of the town and the folks that live there. I look forward to checking out your other videos. "SUBBED!" 👽✌️

    Loved living in Hamilton/brantford for about 4 years in the 2010’s. Ancaster has snobby folks for no reason but Burlington is really the cats ass if you want a nice city to visit. Oakville is very nice too

      Brave coming to a Hamilton video and suggesting that Burlington is better. Can't think of a single thing to do in Burlington that doesn't have an equivalent that's better in Hamilton.

    Thanks for vid. Hamilton is not my hometown, Niagara Falls is. I moved here in the 1980s and then left to teach English, in Asia, in 1997. I always liked living here and returned last year, back to The Durand neighbourhood from whence I came. Glad I came back home. The people here are super friend;y and nice. It's a great place to live.

    Bottom line. Hamilton is one of the ugliest cities in Ontario. A.K.A Barfalo of the North. The air is bad. The population has been exposed to metal poisoning and if it wasn’t for unions with health insurance there would be less health care.
