The best time to go depends on the experience you would like to have during your holiday in Canada. Summer in southern Ontario is usually hot and sunny, while the winters are quite severe with lots of snow and temperatures below freezing. The northern parts of Ontario tend to be cold throughout the year. If you want to witness glorious snowy landscapes, try out snow sports, and get great deals on winter getaways, winter (December to March) is the best time to go. But if you would rather go when it’s hot and the province offers up endless adventures and experiences, summer (June to September) is the best time to go. But be warned, summer can get crowded and too hot. But to score good deals, experience great weather, and witness the province in a breathtaking cloak of colour, spring (March to June) or autumn (September to December) are the best months to go to Ontario.

Although there are areas in Ontario that can be quite rough, overall it is a safe place and the police are extremely efficient and approachable. If you do thorough research on the areas you will be staying in and travelling through and avoid the seedier parts of town you should be fine. That being said, you should always keep your wits about you and use common sense when travelling to a new place.
Travel insurance to cover theft and medical expenses is also recommended.
