THE STATE OF OUR JAILS – UNCONSCIONABLE

Okay it’s one thing to be tough on crime but it’s another to be inhumane. After one year, the state-of-the-art infirmary and mental health unit at the new highly touted Toronto South Superjail remains closed to this day. If an inmate suffers from mental or physical illness they throw them into the “deplorable and filthy conditions” of 24 hour a day solitary confinement to rot without health care. The Correctional Centre in Penetanguishene is no better. We need to be ashamed of ourselves!
