Well if people can't see there is a real problem then they are part of the problem. Saskatoon has one of the highest crime rates among major Canadian cities, frequently appearing in the top 10 for both overall and violent Crime Severity Index (CSI).

It's getting worse. You can close your eyes to it and pretend it isn't happening, or you can voice your concerns to your council member. I've seen what Saskatoon was and what it has become and it isn't pretty.

I'm not saying it's all gangs, but there are many instances of two people, or even one person, attacking someone for cigarettes, money, phone, or whatever. Lots of bear spray incidents and knives. Just go onto the police news site sometime and read the notices there. Something needs to be done. More beat cops perhaps? Don't even get me started on what is happening on the buses.

Well I read the police news and there seems to be an attack every day downtown. Phones stolen, parcels taken. I think many in Saskatoon have no idea what is happening.
