@JohnHoward_Can Some legislation was assented in June, buried in C-69, which included some provisions of the fed budget. (The changes to auto theft law were in this Bill as well.)
Doesn't seem too democratic to me!

[SusanHaines @SusanHaines]

@JohnHoward_Can This article needs some fact-checking: what was the legislation in June (wasn't it a footnote in the federal budget?); and, are they high risk b/c of prior convictions in their home country? Otherwise, how can a newcomer have prior charges?
Hmm I'll try to learn more ...

@JohnHoward_Can @thewalrus Giving birth in ankle shackles?!
Horrible story with a surprising & reasonably decent ending! It really shows why we need more community-based facilities instead of prisons. ...And why we need better coordination between govt & NGOs to plan these things.

Brings me back to @jimjefferies Charm Offensive night in #Ottawa w @AmosGill22 @jimmycarr 😆

@CPEPgroup Oh nooooo

Maybe @MarcMillerVM @SeanFraserMP @DeputyPM_Canada @CanadianPM #cdnpoli should exert s93(1) of the CCRR,visit prisons & talk to people living there. They could even stay a weekend to understand what the decision means.
If it's no big deal, separated from criminals, try it out!

Immigration minister responds to critics over plan to detain migrants in federal penitentiaries.
Detainees will be in 'separate housing' in prisons 'because they are not criminals': Serious implications both for migrants and correctional service. 1/2

[SusanHaines @SusanHaines]

This is not acceptable. It's shameful.
@MarcMillerVM @SeanFraserMP: Find other options; find hostels, hotels, community centres, school & military residences. Tap into P/T, municipal and community-based networks.
This is not ok.

Shame!

Advocates fought to ban incarcerating people in provincial jail on “immigration hold” who have committed no crimes and are simply there for administrative reasons. Instead of not incarcerating them, the government is planning on federal prison instead https://t.co/EsFk8sWs2t

With a new Whole Pie report, we can re-up one of our favorite graphics with 2022 survey data from @SafeandJustUSA.

The data shows again and again that victims of crime do not want mass incarceration, but want to hold people accountable through options beyond prison.

Why can’t ⁦Police, in this case the @OttawaPolice⁩, talk to people? #Deescalate don’t terrify, please. #RestoreConfidence #CommunicateNotTase https://t.co/BqFSvHld87

…increased public knowledge about…prisons will move the system to reflect Canada’s values of openness, humanity &freedom.
“Remember that regardless of how people end up within prisons, they are citizens,” Harewood said.
