By destiny, luck or fate, I live in a Toronto neighbourhood that has a high percentage of Chinese families. I have often wondered, like many families, if by neighbourhood is safe, relative to other Toronto neighbourhoods. As well, if a friend from China was about to migrate to Toronto and wanted to live in a safe Chinese neighbourhood, where would I recommend? This blog post tries to answer these questions.

Today I woke up at 06:30 to a morning of lovely sunshine and moderate 16°C temperatures. At 07:00 a helicopter begins hovering over my house, and does this for 30-40 minutes. Helicopters in my locale, means there’s trouble in the neighbourhood.
CTV News helicopter buzzes my house at 07:00am. They are LOUD.
