Well we all know that's pretty much an oxymoron. Do you know this person well enough to invite them to Hamilton for the day? My hubby did not want to move to Hamilton. Growing up in Niagara, the view from the Skyway was the sum total of his impression of Hamilton. One trip driving around Westdale, Durand, and Kirkendall was enough to change his mind. Of course when we told people we were moving to Hamilton, everyone said "You have to live on the mountain! It's so much cleaner and safer!" Perhaps your aquaintance is under a similar impression and a trip around some of the lower city neighbourhoods will change his/her mind.
