The Grierson Centre is a minimum security institution in Downtown Edmonton. It is run and operated by Correctional Service of Canada.
The site of the Grierson Centre was originally the North-West Mounted Police's headquarters in Edmonton. One of the buildings in the Grierson Centre, former RCMP Centre Building 3, is a registered federal heritage site.
Famous quotes containing the word centre:
“To live and die amongst foreigners may seem less absurd than to live persecuted or tortured by one’s fellow countrymen.... But to emigrate is always to dismantle the centre of the world, and so to move into a lost, disoriented one of fragments.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
