2/2 While accountability for criminal wrongdoing is important, so is the context. Also, if parole ineligibility periods are so long that prisoners expect to die in prison, unlikely adding to the sentence will deter: "Nothing to lose" = higher risk cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
Prisoner on trial for assaulting another prisoner: UCCO is correct - violence in prisons increasing: Inmate to inmate assaults were 38% higher than last year: 200 more incidents than a decade ago. Effective measures must be taken to reduce it. 1/2 cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…

The recent "tough on crime" talk that will likely only intensify if a federal election is called is going to make this so so much worse.
"recent report by the Ontario Human Rights Commission". Uh, considering the topic FOUR YEARS seems too long to be considered recent.

Many good accounts of prisoner experience ontradict this absurd claim. One current one is appearing monthly in Law360 Canada - latest one here. law360.ca/ca/criminal/ar…. The CPC line on this is only intended for political reasons.
Perhaps the MPs would consider spending a week eating the cook-chill food provided to prisoners, living most of the day in their bathrooms, and going without internet before concluding that prisoners are living better than most Canadians. ctvnews.ca/politics/livin…
@JustinPicheh @brianlilley @CdnPressNews We agree! Providing opportunities for recreational activities promotes safer correctional institutions for those who live and work there. It is best for incarcerated individuals to be occupied in a productive, controlled and healthy manner.

@JohnHoward_Can I did not know John Howard Society advocated for these, I was today years old when I learned this. It’s a good thing. I’m familiar with the John Howard Society supporting persons in need, helping them get back up on their feet. Prison reform is needed, more education.
A great agency to work for
This holiday season, thanking all John Howard Society staff, volunteers, donors, and friends for their compassion and support throughout the year. It takes special people to contribute to the rebuilding of lives and we greatly appreciate your help.
@JohnHoward_Can Advocates should push the HOC public safety committee to review SIU legislation.

@JohnWKowal1 @MelissaLantsman Bail reforms make sense though, especially some proposed by @JohnHoward_Can for bail housing to keep accused persons off the street and supervised. It would also help with the appalling fail to appear and/or comply data which may not look serious but does promote crime activity.

Thank you to our friends at @Scottsnursery for their generous donation of supplies for our community garden at the Oak Centre! Gardening contributes to the physical and mental well-being of our residents.
@JohnHoward_Can @nationalpost Not a new concept man.
We asked the young people served by the New Brunswick Youth Outreach Program, "What do you feel you have gotten out of this program or what does this program mean to you?" One young person answered with a single, meaningful word..."Family". Our hearts are full.
This would only matter if inmates’ lives mattered to the powers that be in the first place…
Premiers and others calling for more pretrial detention in the name of public safety should compare the number of deaths of people remanded in custody with the number of deaths caused by those released on bail.
We were excited to have the Honourable Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth meet with a few of our amazing Caseworkers and younger program participants to discuss challenges youth are facing in Saskatchewan. Thank you for taking time to listen, Minister @MarciIen!
