I grew up in Ottawa, the east end of the city is surprisingly ghetto.

When I talk to people from other parts of the world it amazes me how they did not have the same drug and violence filled upbringing that I had. I was glad to escape.

Ottawa is a nice city but at night I felt in some danger as there were a lot of drug addicts which is such a shame because it is a pretty city. Downtown at night we were approached by a group of junkies which made me feel very uncomfortable and unsafe. Would not recommend solo female travellers to go unless they are trained.
