Build these new prisons in Newfoundland use the old adage you grow what you eat and you sleep in what you build, believe me two years working out doors in NFL will scare anyone straight. Well that and their native diet of moose sausage, potted meat, pickled hot dogs, pork riblets, fries and dressing, moose stew, eel pie, flipper pie, Vienna sausages, those little fish that jump into your bucket that look like slugs.

Newfoundlanders use to love my idea of turning sections of Top Sail into a penal colony, all I did for five years was shovel snow, in fact if it were an Olympic event I would of taken home the gold. Alas it is not part of the Olympics so I had settle for a strong heart and a weak soul because I cried like a baby everytime another 60 cm landed on my drive way and roof. If it broke me can you image what it would do to a career criminal??
