Since I left the CSC over 20 years ago I have been fighting for those on the front lines past and present for better working conditions. Through West Yard I exposed what it was really like to work behind the fences and walls of Canadian prisons. Our workplace induced stress related injuries have gone largely unnoticed and untreated for decades. Now we have an opportunity to lessen the gravity of our stress related on the job injuries through this study. I have spoken with researchers and I believe that this project will benefit those who work behind the walls. Please consider taking part.
