I was working last night, and there were cops EVERYWHERE over a certain part of Edmonton. If I had to guess, something major happened that the news hasn't released yet. Murder, home invasion, stabbing...something.
But the bottom line, is that yes, Edmonton seems to have more violent crime than Calgary. More murders obviously. But that doesn't mean Calgary is exempt from these acts. They just might not happen as much. Big cities have big problems, and I hardly think a murder total reflects on the general population of any city.
