    Thanks Johnny, I travelled these streets a lot in the 80s and 90s, even worked as a DJ at Fillmore’s for awhile. Amazing how much things have changed and yet somehow remain the same.

    I’m from Sweden and wanted to watch the video because I’m planning on visitng Toronto.
    I found it hilarious that the video starts in ”IKEA city”.

    Vancouver Downtown East is also considered a dangerous area. Same for many cities worldwide.I wonder wide.

    Papa John's is truly an affront to humanity, the worst pizza I've ever had. I live on Pembroke too, I've met Ken a couple times

      There are some bad chains out there but Papa Johns almost seem like they are TRYING to make bad pizza. You can't create something that awful without a bit of effort.

      Ok so just as I wrote a few hours later this I was driving along Gerrard going back home when I'm sure I gave a wide enough berth on a turn and this pedestrian hit my right rear of the car and did a bit of damage to signal light cover... 🤔 But could happen anywhere... I'm sure I wasn't out of line

    Ironically my girl bestie met me once near the hotel I used to frequent (at Bond and Dundas East) and mentioned how sketchy it felt to her. I never stayed there after that though it’s no longer a hotel now.

    I'll be honest I didn't watch this video because there isn't any no go zones in Toronto. We are the fourth largest city in North America and we are very safe

      Much safer than Montreal and Vancouver of course.

    • @RichardHartl
      @RichardHartl Місяць тому +1

      To be fair he did add a "not really" although many people might label it as so, rather than no-go I'd say "rather not go" I live in the neighbourhood btw

    What a difference between Ken's neighbourhood (Sherbourne/Dundas) and your neighbourhood (Yonge/Eglinton). Ken has cheap rent because of his rough neighbourhood and his smaller suite; You have cheap rent because of rent control.👍

    As a healthy young male, you clearly wouldn't be the first target for the gangs or homeless crazies in this area. I know these areas very well (and coincidentally you just walked by a location that somebody was beaten to death yesterday.). So I wouldn't be saying this is a safe area.
    The Regent park gangs feed off of these unfortunate drug addicts you were walking by. Yes the Regent park gangs have not gone anywhere. Most of the shootings or stabbings happen at night. As for Regent park, which is only a couple blocks east, all the city has done has put lipstick on a pig and put a lot of cameras on the streets over there. It's still a ghetto.

      There's a reason Brinks won't pick up at the Dollarama on Sherbourne. And you go down there some nights, really late, it's like an angry block party at the corner of Shuter and Sherbourne.
