79-year-old inmate at Beaver Creek Institution dies in custody after more than 50 years of incarceration: What efforts were made to rehabilitate Mr. Beach? Sentenced to death by incareration in late 20s? muskokaregion.com/news/79-year-o… via @MuskokaRegion
These are TJ’s mother’s words. Her son took his life at the Edmonton Remand after his pleas for help were ignored. This is just one example of the harm caused by carceral approaches to substance use and mental health. #JusticeForTJ #CareNotCages #CareIsNotCoersed
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 cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…

"The gunman who killed 22 people in the worst mass shooting in Canadian history may have been an informant or agent for the national police force, sources say." Was this a subject of the Inquiry? #RCMP dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…
Every organization needs to distance itself from policing. Don’t partner with them on initiatives. Don’t invite them to your events. They want something in return: good PR for them, plus infiltration/access to your clients & community. Don’t put your community in harm’s way.

"@SylviaJonesMPP please listen to us. We need your leadership. You have a choice: you [can] save lives & costs to the system or you can continue to do nothing. If our loved ones die, that will be your legacy.” - Amber Fritz of @ACCESS1989 drugpolicy.ca/for-immediate-… #saveONscs
"Conditions at HMP have repeatedly been condemned as deplorable. During his time at the penitentiary, the citizen of Congo, also known as Congo-Kinshasa, also faced "shocking" and "racist" treatment, according to the transcripts." #prison #HumanRights cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
I agree that trying to advocate for systemic change is exhausting. That said, I personally feel I have no choice. I also don’t imagine being happy not caring or doing anything where I see unfairness. I find it rewarding to try even when I fail, which is effectively all the time.

Map of Canada's use of solitary confinement in federal prisons: By April 2021 Dr. Doob had assessed, with limited data, that at least 28.4% of SIU placements met the solitary confinement threshold of the Mandela Rules and 9.9% of those lasted > 15 days. solitaryconfinement.org/_files/ugd/Map…
Getting an education lowers a prisoner’s likelihood of reoffending. So why does Canada make it nearly impossible for inmates to take online courses? Kudos Brendan Kennedy #FFRR thestar.com/news/investiga… via @TorontoStar

Spread the word... We won't stop fighting the Kemptville prison, whether in court or outside of it, until the Ford government drops its ill-conceived & costly plan to demo farm buildings + pave over prime agricultural land that also includes a creek & floodplain.

Young man with no criminal record arrested on drug charges. Attend court for him today. Am told that "this week's bail calendar is full, we have slots open next week". THIS. IS. NOT. OK.
SIUs are failing to deliver: Go back to the drawing board or reform the CCRA to ensure prisoners: are not subjected to prohibited prolonged solitary confinement anywhere in the federal prisons; have timely, effective, independent reviews of placements; ++ publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/rsrcs/pblc…

Every time you partner with 👮♂️ you add more $ to their budget while your org competes for dimes alongside other orgs. Your "partnership" ends up as a line on a slide deck used during a budget meeting to justify more money for more cops, more criminalization, and more prisons.
