pepper spray is illegal here, how about a knife or baton?

In Canada all products with a label containing the words pepper spray, mace, etc, or otherwise originally produced for use on humans are classified as a restricted weapon. Only Peace Officers, and individuals/corporations who have special government permits may legally carry or possess pepper spray. Any similar canister with the labels reading "dog spray" and/or "bear spray" may be legally carried by anyone. The legality of using spray intended for animal deterent on a person would be decided in court on a case-by-case basis.

get a whistle which can be attached to your keychain. It does not help alot but at least catch other's attentions if you got attacked(well if there is anyone around).

Legal in Canada. That's what a K9 security officer recommended to me a couple years back. I have a few bottles at home and in my car.

I'm thinking..... even you may have a few self-defending devices in your purse/pockets, would that be too late to pull them out in time? Those devices are good to be a back up, yet I think the most effective and safest way is try not to be alone if possible, or to learn any kind of "kung fu" (seriously)?!

Inscet killer spray is the best. It is legally to be used anywhere, licenced to "kill", cheap in price. Hold the can whenever you are alone.

Taking long time to learn KUNG FU and you may get punch or hurt when defeding with KUNG FU.

I used to work from 7-4 and had to walk to the bus stop at 5:15am. It was so dark and scary that early in the morning in winter time. It happened one day there was a guy with a hoodie walked down from a athletic field. I was so scared. Since then I'd just walk on the road, not on the sidewalk as there weren't a single car on the road. My co-worker suggested me to hold the keys in my hand as a weapon. I worked this shift for 4 months and due to the safety issue I talked to my boss and requested to work a later shift and he agreed.

i get off at 7pm...so i usually carry a long umbrella (with a pointy stem at the bottom) and swing it back and forth while i walk to my car....so hopefully i won't be an easy target...

but i'll look into the dye witness...

The SPY SHOP on West Broadway at Burrard,
Pepper Spray starting $8.50

You have to make sure you are strong enough that they won't easily over-power you. If they can easily grab the pepper spray (or any other weapon) from you, they will use it on you.

If you are a tiny girl, i don't suggest carrying/using any weapons, instead, get something that get noticed might help. Get yourself a whistle, and wear a bike flashing light on your bag at night.

If the public can easily notice you, you will be much safer.

Well.. you will want to piss them off so they will leave you alone, but you won't want to "give" them something that might hurt you.

If you have a knife... you will probably be shaking at that time, they will easily take the knife from you and use it on you.

However, if you have a personal alarm, you will piss them off, they cannot use it to hurt you, and they will probably leave you and find another target.
