This mural, showing the attractions of the Niagara Escarpment, Limehouse Kilns and Hilton Falls, was painted by Toronto artist Robert Johannsen in Georgetown eight years ago. Apart from its distinctive beauty in the historic part of town, it's notable for a couple of things:
1. There's no graffiti or gang-related tagging on the wall. Why? Georgetown has no gangs, despite scary talk from the local cops at budget time a few years back when they warned of hordes of Asian drug dealers heading our way. Hmm, they must have taken a wrong turning because we didn't hear another word after the cops got their dosh. And the local kids, despite occasional grumblings from their elders in the letters pages of the local rag, seem less inclined to scribble bad words on walls than their pals in the cities.
2. There are no CCTV cameras peering down on the wall from across the street or, in fact, anywhere else in town (apart from the shopping malls where shopkeepers love their customers to death, but don't trust them an inch out of their sight). So, you can walk down the streets at any time, confident that no official voyeur is watching every step you take on a video monitor in a darkened room. In fact, our crime rate is so low that the cops seem to spend most of their working hours ambushing unsuspecting motorists with speed guns or enjoying donuts at the many local coffee stores . . .
Welcome to Georgetown, Ontario. Boring as hell, but safe as houses.
Never takin sports photos before I decided to practice at my brother's little league baseball game. And I think this turned out well.

Greater Manchester Police’s Chief Constable Peter Fahy is joined by Inspector Andrew Sutcliffe at an event to celebrate over 1000 homes across Trafford having had their security improved as part of a six-month project.
Mr. Fahy thanked those involved in securing the 1041 homes at a special meting at the Force's headquarters on 20 May.
Under the Safer Homes scheme, police community support officers identified the vulnerable properties, surveyed them and highlighted any security issues. They then offered the homeowners the chance to have security devices fitted free of charge.
During the project, Timpson’s Locksmiths fitted many different security measures such including -
949 door chains,
298 door viewers,
201 tower bolts,
71 mortise bolts,
154 door locks,
317 window locks and
34 patio bolts
Each home was also given a pack containing crime reduction and fire safety advice as well as a discount coupon for the ‘How To Avoid Becoming A Target For Crime’ guide.
Participants were asked at the end of the project if they felt safer as a result of it. 83 per cent of those asked said that they felt more secure in their homes.
The Greater Manchester High Sheriff’s Police Trust funded the project via the Home Office’s Safer Homes fund.
Chief Superintendent Mark Robert of Greater Manchester Police’s Trafford Division said: “We always encourage residents to take care of their personal property and to keep it safe and through this campaign we can make sure we are providing the support they need to do this.
“We work in close partnership with other Safer Trafford Partnership members to make sure that Trafford is one of the safest places to live in Greater Manchester. Through schemes like this we can deter criminals and keep it that way.”

Police and Stretford High School have launched a groundbreaking initiative to send out a clear message about the use of drugs.
In the first initiative of its kind in Trafford, officers from the Stretford Neighbourhood Policing Team used drugs detection dogs to search classrooms and grounds of the school’s Great Stone Road premises. No students were found in possession of illegal substances.
Police also held a question and answer session with students about drugs and the role of the police within communities.
Officers are planning to work with different schools across the borough over the coming months.
PC Tina Jackson, Schools-based police officer for Stretford High School, said: “Stretford High School is no different from any other school when it comes to the use of drugs by young people. The aim, using two search dogs, was to disrupt, identify and deal with any illegal activity.
"This joint initiative demonstrates how seriously both the school and the police take drugs-related activity, both on and off-campus. The fact that no drugs were found endorses the strict policy and standards that the school continues to maintain."
Eddie Malone, Headteacher of Stretford High School, said: “We support anything that the police do in the local community to minimise and eradicate the illegal use of drugs. If we have a concern within the school, we follow it up quickly and nip it in the bud.
“The school works hard to educate young people about the dangers of drug mis-use. We want to ensure that drugs sold on the streets do not come into the school and we are proud of setting the example of being a drug-free zone. Members of staff are always on the lookout for signs of illegal activity.
“Our main aim is to ensure that students are safe, healthy and ready to learn.”

Deputy Chief Police and Crime Commissioner Jim Battle, Chief Inspector Laura Marler and Jessica White of the LGBT Foundation Angels at the Safe Haven.
A new initiative to provide support to people in need on a night out has been launched in Manchester city centre.
The Safe Haven has been developed by Greater Manchester Police, Manchester City Council, Greater Manchester’s Police and Crime Commissioner and other partners.
Based at the Nexus Art Café at Dale Street it is designed to reduce the demand on frontline services by assisting those people who become vulnerable and require the support of others to ensure they are safe and can get home after being out and about in the city following a night out.
It is supported by regular officers, special constables, Manchester Street Angels and the LGBT Foundation Village Angels. The centre will act as a place of safety and a hub for police to provide care, advice and assistance for anyone who attends. Water and hot drinks will be provided and visitors to the café will receive support to help them arrange to get home.
Chief Inspector Laura Marler who is coordinating the Safe Haven scheme said: “Weekend nights in the city centre is a busy time for all partners including police. This initiative is to ensure our most vulnerable members of the community are protected, we can reduce the demand on our frontline services and the number of incidents of violent crime and ensure those visiting the city can enjoy their night safely.”
Councillor Pat Karney, Manchester city centre spokesman, said: “Manchester is famous for its nightlife and tens of thousands of people come into the city centre every weekend to experience enjoyable and safe nights out. However, there will always be people who are feeling vulnerable in any large city centre on a Friday and Saturday night and the Safe Haven scheme will provide somewhere they can go without having to approach the emergency services directly.”
Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Jim Battle said: “This safe haven will enhance the valuable work done by our emergency services, door staff and army of volunteers from the LGBT Foundation Village Angels, Manchester Street Angels who are out every weekend to keep people safe in our city centre.
“The safe haven will provide a place for people to chill out, perhaps recharge their phone, get support and ultimately get home safely.
“It will help to make sure that our police are freed up to keep our city’s streets safe, but most importantly it will mean people who could fall victim to crime are able to keep out of harm’s way.
“I hope this scheme is a success as it demonstrates how the emergency services, venues, charities and volunteers are all working together to make our city a fantastic place.”
