I lived in the Hamilton, Ontario area for 9 years (1993-2002) before spending five years at university in Michigan. I graduated from my undergraduate program this past spring, and moved back to the city I call my home. Now, living here indefinitely, I find myself loving the city of Hamilton more than ever. I am thrilled by the latent potential of the downtown, and yet am baffled by the apparently self-loathing attitude of its general population.
I hope to use this blog as an outlet for thought about Hamilton and all things therein.
Thanks for reading–I hope you’ll check back soon.

I too am baffled at the self loathing of some Hamiltonians…however, what I have learned about this is quit simple. Generally, the more well traveled and educated you are, the more you love Hamilton… the less well traveled and educated you are, the more you hate Hamilton. The good news is, I know and have met many, many fabulous people who live and love in the city of Hamilton by choice. They know what a good thing we have.
