11 years ago I got out.
How did I manage, Joyceville was tough as shit, I managed by reading a crap load and packing a toothbrush shiv where ever I went. Also, I never (well, after about the first week I never) pissed off the guards. Screw with them, they murder your balls with billy clubs every chance they get.
One guy on my third year killed a guard and is now serving 2 back 2 back life sentences in Kingston.
Some where in ONT.
