This is quite a change from the plan that has been talked about for years where they would alternate and take property on both sides of the road to avoid the jail. Makes more sense to me. Apparently the Provincial government isn't apposed to the idea. I'm thinking it appeals to voters in Tuxedo who would prefer to see the Jail moved out of their neighbourhood.

I did some work at the Headingley Ladies Jail once, and the guy there was telling me that Corrections owns a huge amount of land around it and that in the future MYC and another remand centre would be built there. I have no idea how reliable this info is.
