You can't expect to leave the town in the hands of the same 50-, 60-, and 70-year old decision-makers and for things to get better. Again - insanity. It takes new blood, new ideas, people that actually want to see the town get better, to get in there and have a voice, have a say in where the money gets spent, be tapped into the pulse of the community, understand what the youth are craving and toss them a bone, and who knows, maybe some of the good ones will stay past 16, 17, or 18. Just sayin'.

[BridgewatersFinest]

Albert Einstein is famously attributed as defining insanity as "doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results". I acknowledge that much of the time, I'm bored living in Bridgewater. At 27, my options are somewhat limited. I don't go to the bars every weekend because bar crowds are bored drunken idiots. But rather than just up and leave, I would much rather stay, get involved, and try to y'know, make things better. That's how improvement happens, if you really want it.

[ForeverLaughing221]

I used to live there 

[BridgewatersFinest]

Bridgewater is not a town for young people - it's boring as hell. There's no getting around it. And it's not as if people don't know it. People are intentionally ignorant of it, and yes, that's wrong. More should be done to keep the youth in small Maritime communities, and to keep them out of drugs and alcohol, and gang activities. It's undeniable that it exists. Yet not enough youth are willing to stick around long enough to enact any CHANGE, they just want to leave at the first opportunity.

[BridgewatersFinest]

Speaking as someone who has lived in Bridgewater for over twenty years off-and-on, who left and did the school thing in the big city, then left the province entirely to do more, I come back to my hometown and see it for what it is - another town in a long line of towns just trying to make it in a world that passed it by in the 90's.

[BridgewatersFinest]

I think most everyone of a certain generation (let's say from the 60's onward) who grew up in a small town that didn't really cater to them, holds some sort of animosity towards the place they grew up. Many who grew up and "couldn't wait to get out", who felt that they were "too good for their hometown", should try to be a little less self-righteous.

[BridgewatersFinest]

Welcome to 21st-Century Capitalism, enjoy your stay. There's corruption all over the place, it sure as hell isn't just Bridgewater. Halifax is corrupt as shit, for example.

Bridgewater suffers from the same identity crisis as virtually every Maritime community. It markets itself as a retirement community, but ponders why it can't keep youth (and why the ones who remain are so disenfranchised). Yet Bridgewater somehow manages to be one community to show economic and population growth.

[902hardcore]

Check out google street view of the town, nothing visually very dirty about this town?? Depends on your point of view i guess, but lots of worst places than this that's for sure.

[lucasmader]

@mark7smith Shut the fuck up mark

[bridgewaterMODL]

I'd like to know why you would say it's corrupted! Do you really think the politicians are on the take?? Get real. Bridgewater has improved so much over the years and is a great place to live.

[roellimr2]

@lumberjacksryan Oh please. Who's gonna do it? You?? It's because of illiterate cunts like you (it's "course", "beaten" and "badly") that make this town such a shithole. And I ain't afraid to say that to your face too.

[kevinperham]

[TheLloyall]

[FU2TWO]

Bridgewater IS A filthy, dirty corrupted, Rotten Town. .. And like a Rotting Fish, it starts at The Head  and works it's way on down.On Down.

[bigdjindustriez]

You got it man. We even have people getting punched in the face at random, homeless people, and gangs roaming around. It's all gone to shit.

[Bandito14]

@bigdjindustriez is there even one homeless person in bridgewater?

[bryn271]

I have visited Bridgewater, if you think that this is a dirty old town, you have not travelled far. I would recommend a visit to Bridgewater and its surrounding communities to any tourist. Overall, I believe the south shore is the best tourist destination in the province, Bridgewater definitely included.

[incognito84]

I'm from Bridgewater. I miss it sometimes but the description is right. My problem is that the town has problems and everyone just seems to turn a blind eye to them. There is nothing more horrifying than young people in Bridgewater as they all seem to come from broken homes and have nothing better to do than form "gangs", get in fights and loiter. Bridgewater is the ass end of Nova Scotia (bad enough) and the dark side of Eastern Canadian culture. Nice place to visit, horrible place to grow up.

[tristanimator]

@incognito84

Hah i disagree, Im from Bwater too and growing up there is the best thing you can do for yourself.... Because nothing will make you want to leave faster than growing up there.

[incognito84]

@tristanimator Haha! Touche.

[11mattheib]

this is the best town you'll ever see!!

[nicelydone666]

LOL wow ... I'm not proud to say that this town is my home...

[ItsMeRuffles]

NO ITS NOT

[HELLVOMIT]

That town is a shithole, all the politicians are asshole dickfaces.

SMOKE WEED EVRY DAY TAVERN LOL GO NO WHERE THE WORLD IS THE SAME EVERYWHERE EVERYTHING IS A FAILURE LOL LOL YAY

[marjorieee1]

T.O.B all the way ! b-water is not dirty

[kirstendurning]

i miss that town =(

[djjonp1]

this a good town. you dont like it then dont visit. couldnt hurt us any. and 'Scandal, Corruption and Back Door Politics'? shouldn't put stuff that you don't know. obviously if that was true we wouldnt have a nice town and places to live in it. bud your fucked up.

[fatalinstigator]

Um, what?

'Scandal, Corruption and Back Door Politics'

I lived in Bridgewater longer then I wanted and even moved back for a year during a break from university. Sure there's some things wrong with it but I wouldn't go to those extremes.

[2009zbp]

Bridgewater! Love it!

[Catherineeeeeeable]

Hahahaha, yes. TOB.

[djbas5309]

EAT MY MEATY CUNT

[petowner321]

I live here and like the place a lot and is not a dirty old town!!

[junkrocker]

i hear theres a "gang" there now...glad I left after high school!!!...

[fatalinstigator]

@junkrocker

There is no 'gang'. There were like 8 kids from Parkview who beat up a guy outside KOD and that's basically it. All of them moved out west shortly after

[VaughnWhynot]

@fatalinstigator they wasn't from PVEC lol

[incognito84]

@fatalinstigator TOB is definitely a gang. They even spray painted "TOB" on my car when I went into the mall for fifteen minutes, hahaha.

[TheBlacksunfire]

@incognito84 probably wasn't really the "TOB", most of the original guys are long gone, now just random punks that think there hard, go around spray painting/ smashing stuff but not a real gang just restless kids

[TheAlska1]

What?

[LITTLEBIGT]

Great video  Thank-You
