Corrections Canada Museum
More Info | + My Favorites
This smaller museum housed in the former warden's home covers many aspects of the Canadian Correctional System through the ages. Compare the differences in cells from 1906 to today. View the harsh methods of punishment and restraint used at a time when the focus was on deterring rather than rehabilitating. Literary giantess Margaret Atwood accessed the museum’s information when researching for her novel ‘Alias Grace’. The museum has set hours during the months of May until October. The rest of the year is by appointment.
