i am from Pickering and when i was 16 - 19, on many occasions, we would get harrassed by the cops for loitering outside a coffee shop. We would get chased into the forest for crying out loud. My name was taken down so many times i lost count. They even had Undercover cops come by..yeah all we were doing was playing hackie sack..Some ppl would drink in the forest and do drugs.. but i'm sure the cops have more important things to do then to harrass us. It was lame.

i remember a female cop patting me down before the Bay Ridges Festival and smiling at me while she grabbed my crotch lmao. I used to go to bush parties at The Chimney in the forest behind Pine Ridge Secondary. I also smoked more than a few joints at the abandoned barn in Whitevale.

but yeah... Durham cops are pretty hardass.

did people chill at The Hub when you were a teenager?

Durham is retarded..
The cops there anyway.
i went to the festival and got searched also..it's bc it's supposed to be a family event but a lot of teenagers go and just get fucked up and there are fights that happen. I've seen it, and i've seen some guy having to get rushed to hte hospital bc he was out cold.

What's 'the hub' ?
i'm not down with the lingo lol

Now compare those numbers with an American city of similar size.
