Canada's Ugliest Cities

[Esco!]

Anyone ever been to Drummondville??

No, good dont!!

 

[FOOTSNIFFER]

Can't describe Edmonton as anything other than a total disgrace. No street life. Hideous architecture. No decent restaurants. Just a generally despondent air about the place...and that was right in the middle of the recent oil boom. Imagine what it's like when times get tough.

Canadian cities tend to be on the sombre side. We're a northern country. The architects/city planners should have taken that into account when designing the place.....Austria does it perfectly.

Oshawa (by far he worst)
St. John NB

When you've been and why tends to influence your views.

I was out on the East coast once (Charlottetown, Fredricton, New Glasgow) for a month during a brutal winter....I hated it. But everyone I know tells me it's very beautiful, and pretty, and those towns are charming.

FOOTSNIFFER, one of the reasons Canadian cities tend to be on the somber side is that most Canadian cities are fairly new (i.e. less than a century old) and designed to be first of all functional (the frontier mentality). After all, the oldest city in Canada is Quebec City, which dates back to 1608.
Many European cities, for example, can date back >1000 years (ditto for some Asian cities such as Kyoto). Paris, Rome, even London all date back to the times of the Roman empire. This adds the weight of history and lends it a certain beauty that no Canadian or American city can match.

Oshawa (by far he worst)

I hear their public washrooms are shitty!


Know why they called it Oshawa?

They couldn't fit Cousin Fucker on the sign.

I've lived all across Canada... and Winnipeg and Regina were easily the worst.

Edmonton

..in a heart beat....I leave here next july and I'm NEVER coming back.Just a dump.I've seen more f*cked up things here then I've seen anywhere in Canada.


I have nothing against blue collar, but ignorant and arrogant bluecollar makes me puke and that's all this dump is.

I lived in the 'shwa for the better part of a decade and I can say without reservation it is the ugliest, low class, lunch bucket POS town this great country has to offer.

 

[The Oracle]

Looks like Oshawa out is out front. I think a pool could be warranted here.

 

[Hockey_MLnut]

South Oshawa

I'd say Deadmonton is neck and neck with the 'shwa.

The armpit of Canada is Toronto I think.

we prefer to be known as the centre of the armpit

 

[bigshot]

Definitely Sudbury, with Hamilton coming in a strong second!

[Cycleguy007]

I'll have to vote for Hamilton- especially as seen from the Skyway in Burlington! What a shit-hole!

 

[LancsLad]

If Canada were ever to need an enema, then clearly the 'shwa would be where they insert the nozzle.

Windsor ..ok it might not have ramped druggies everywhere but its pretty sad..past by just this week, no holiday lights at all, the escorts need a license from the police to work...the strip clubs can not allow the customers and dancers to touch each other. The MP are under watch always by the police undercover units. Few nice hotels and they are just at the casino which is way out away from the clubs, anything. Now with the auto companies in bad shape, its a sad, no fun place.

So how does the escort license, strip club touching and MPs under watch make it ugly?

I think Downtown Hamilton is the definite winner... out side of that small square circle of a wrestling ring it is..its fine
