Like I said, don't make us all out to be the same. 1:1 ratio with rioters? You really think that would work? There are tactics that need to be used. My next door neighbor is an RCMP and we chatted a lot about what happened last night. They're not going 1-1 with rioters to "fight", or else innocent bystanders would be hurt.

And yes, I said 50-100 people rioting. 1000's were there and watching or cheering because they were drunk, but 50-100 people actually did something. How do I know? I live here. I was there.
Ahh my point isn't that Ontario is or isn't better. It's that we don't act smug and print "The Best Place On Earth' on our license plates and constantly tout being voted as one of the best cities on the planet.

My issue is not with you Nitrouz, but surely living in Vancouver you must notice the 'Smug' alert is off the charts. It's one of the first things I noticed when I moved into Vancouver was how high on themselves everyone was for living in Vancouver.

Vancouver get's this backlash because they constantly pat themselves on the back for being awesome, and have these slogans on the actual drivers license and license plates about how great a place it is, don't be surprised when other people rub your noses in it a little when the city riots...
