"n his recently released book, CuJo: The Untold Story Of My Life On And Off The ice, he opens up about a dark and troubled childhood surrounded by drug abuse, neglect and hopelessness.

He was raised in a North Toronto mental institution run by his new parents — his adoptive mother was an unstable drug addict — where he survived on scraps and slept on a pee-stained mattress in a corner."
