Canada's most diversified economy, Ontario's fastest growing economy, ranked the best place to invest in Canada and Ontario for two years running- this is Hamilton- the Ambitious City.

Hamilton the new shithouse city.

By Far one of the Best videos I have every seen for a city. This video is making me want to truly move there.

this is great.

If Hamilton is supposedly into creativity and 'the arts' then why do people celebrate non-stop 'industry' - mundane manufacturing of things, mass production and dull soul destroying service? Yes, those are jobs - for survival, but what kind of culture is that? And for all this talk, how many great artists has Canada, never mind Hamilton created? A handful, even though personally I have zero interest in Cohen, Mitchell, Rush etc. or the unmentionable pop acts. It seems the 'arts' is about celebrating some art supply store, a gallery or someone who plays classical music in her spare time. It seems people love to have order and the appearance of having it all. But it's all so uninspiring as is this tough guy who uses a lame sports/street like delivery to tell people that working for some bland company with too much money for bait and switch 'hope' ads like this, is a wonderful thing.

This is a great video. I grew up in Toronto, total years I lived there was about 27 years. Yes, its true. Torotonians bash Hamilton - as I used to too. But I never really knew Hamilton until I moved here (Stoney Creek) in 2011. Hamilton is a great place to live and it is bigger than you might think. It's just over 1100 square kilometers. It's also a halfway point from Toronto to Niagara Falls. You just need to see past the rough infrastructure. One of the biggest things I have noticed since 2011 is the abundant amount of real estate. And I'm not only talking about "cookie cutter" homes that are going up everywhere, I'm talking about higher end condos & lofts. And they are not cheap! I've also noticed expansions to malls (like East Gate) and brand new grocery stores, new bigger and better LCBO's, Walmart Super Centers, new swimming facilities, new stadium, new roads, the list goes on and on. Even my area is not looking the same as 2011. The homes are getting bigger and bigger...its starting to look like the burbs of Toronto. Even the people here are friendly. I'm proud to say I live in Hamilton. I kind of went off topic there are a bit i know ;-)

Fabulous video.  Makes me proud to be a Hamiltonian!!!
@silverboie September 24, 2014
Amazing video with a powerful message...... not all need to understand because its happening already.....
@joelavery2729 September 13, 2014
Hamilton is such a shit hole. What gives me credibility to say this? I lived in this shit hole. There is a reason why anything new is built outside or around the city instead of in the city. This city is in a shitty equilibrium where no one wants to put more money in and no one leaving there wants to move away.
@JimRudnick June 9, 2014
As usual....loved the whole production and the 'feel' of same...we really are a 'come-back' city, eh!
@orbital1281 May 28, 2014
That is a great video.
@GeoffCampbell April 7, 2014
Fantastic video, well done.  This shows just a fraction of the potential of this great city.  I love Hamilton because it's not trying to be someplace else or comparing itself to somewhere else.  It's just becoming a better version of itself. 
@jonallan3566 April 1, 2014
As somebody who grew up in Niagara, right next to Hamilton, and who worked at Dofasco, and who is now an Economic Developer..... I have to say, this video is amazing.  It's emotional, beautiful, proud. I effing love it.  I want to move back home and work for the city just because of this. 
@drumstyx February 20, 2014
Makes me miss Hamilton for sure.
@steeltownrealtor February 15, 2014
This is a GREAT AD!!!
@StevePorter76 January 22, 2014
Honestly Ecdev guys, this is the best thing I've ever seen you produce.
@Sprout3169 November 28, 2013
I lived in Toronto for 3 years and decided to move to Hamilton to attend Mohawk Collage for Radio Broadcasting.  I love it here.  Hamilton gets a bad rep by people from Toronto.  Hamilton is the water-fall capital of the world.  Albion Falls and Devil's Punch Bowl are a sight to see. I love Hamilton.
@Gforce7860 November 27, 2013
hamilton smells and is dirty like no other city.  full of homeless people waiting to take your money. trying to go both ways on one street is almost impossible.   i feels sorry for those who live in this city because its hard to see the light shining down in this dark city.  yet 20mins from this dark city is one of the most beautiful cities in all of Canada and that city is Burlington. yes ranked 3rd in all of Canada.
@KeithDobie November 21, 2013
Very well done ... I'm from BC and didn't know those things about Hamilton.
@MarshallMarshall November 11, 2013
Let the poor and uneducated be forgotten...... This is for people who want to believe in the dream. I get it but Is this Government funded?
@jonny123945 November 5, 2013
Amazing
@SoundsLikePurple November 4, 2013
love everything about hamilton from london and its all such a rich character everything it has to work with taking day trips there for 2 years I've taken a lot in mostly for waterfall pictures but I've sensed what it's about and it's on a one of a kind trajectory more than any one person can say as words fall short but for brevity
@StephenBieda October 27, 2013
Makes me proud to be a Hamiltonian. Very inspiring and creative. A superb effort from our superb EcDev folks in Hamilton.
@davro9 October 24, 2013
If Hamilton was a person, she would be a strong female. A mother figure holding it all together during the good times and bad.
@davro9 October 24, 2013
Good message. A little over the top on production. Nice job!
@OutrageousLilKillers October 24, 2013

@Bumpkinis October 22, 2013
Very powerful recitation of all those firsts and an incredible sense of pride just resonating through this whole video, it made me feel proud of being a resident for sure.
@stefanlozinski October 22, 2013
ugh, really? I guess Hamilton is moving away from celebrating artistic/digital innovation now that they have a video that could've been shot for a hydro company or in a highschool locker room during the coach's pre-game pep talk. The slogan should become "Destination Hamilton - you'll like it! -or else! do you comply?" ...wow
