I have enjoyed communicating through music with tourists and locals alike.Some time ago I suspended busking in ByWard due to constant threats, verbal and physical, from indigent street people, drunks and addicts. I have had garbage thrown at me.
For a time I believed in the BIA and city’s statements that security had been improved in the ByWard, and it was true, but alas it has lapsed. One week ago I was threatened with “cutting” in The Market Square by a drunk when I stopped playing for his inebriated “dancing.” “Play for me, respect me or I’ll cut you,” he said. Security was all at the market desk having a joke fest and did not act.Article contentCouncil has not solved the ByWard Market’s addict/thief problem in any way.

It is well and fine to stress the importance of education. Women need to know where to go, and what programs are available. But one cannot overlook the importance of meting out consequences for undesirable behaviour. There must be a greater willingness to bring charges against alleged offenders. After all, education does not stop them from committing and continuing to commit offences.
