Talk:Correctional Service of Canada

message: I added some specific details to the section on "Prison Labour and Employment Programs" to help nuance this section. Although it was very well written, it is important to highlight that rehabilitation as a "goal" over "punishment" only, especially in the prison industry, only by the 1950s(I use these words in quotations because there may be disagreements as to if CSC's focus is more rehabilitation, even today).   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Britneys1 (talk • contribs) 22:36, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know how to move a section to a different location? Is it possible to move the Institutional Listing to the bottom of the article? It would likely appear less choppy if this was the case. Thank you.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.155.157.137 (talk) 10:56, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

message: This section has some problems, IMO. It closely follows a CTV W5 article Easy Out: Catching those on the lam which aired in 2003. The W5 piece represents a particular point of view on corrections: That parole doesn't work. While that is an opinion held by those of one particular political persuasion, the other side of the proposition is not explored. Thus the section does not present a neutral point of view. The W5 piece itself seems to be highly slanted. The case cited in the article is from the mid-1990s, thus dated. Moreover, the program cited: the ROPE program is an example of a successful police program for rounding up offenders who have failed on parole. The article cites no statistics about parole success/failure to put things in context. My question is this: Why do we reproduce a media program that is slanted toward a particular point of view, without attempting to find sources that provide balance and present a neutral point of view? I'm not saying that we shouldn't present this point of view, only that it should be in keeping with WP:NPOV. Sunray (talk) 18:34, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, this article is about the governance of a federal law enforcement agency, and the implementation of the Corrections and Condititonal Release Act, which it is important to point out, was given Royal Assent by the Crown. A peron or organizations perspective such as this section does put forward, remains irrelenvant. The reality is, and this is the most important point, is that the Correctional Service of Canada does not have the lawful authority to grant legal "Conditional Release", that is up to the Judicial Board called the "National Parole Board". However, granted the entire process is to ensure a lawful custody, but this does include Conditional Release which is also lawful. This section is based on "perspectives" rather than "governance", and as such remains entirely outside of the "walls" of a federal institution, or the legislated authority of the Correctional Service of Canada. This section should be removed. S. Firlotte.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.155.158.126 (talk) 11:16, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You make a strong case for removal of the section entirely. One thing makes me hesitate, though: CSC does have the responsibility for parole supervision once the Parole Board has granted conditional release. That does open them up to criticism for parole failures. So I'm wavering between re-writing it and removing it. Sunray (talk) 11:33, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

message: This is a great article and I don't have any edits to suggest besides potentially updating the 'criticisms' section to reflect a wider variety of contemporary criticisms that various Canadian abolitionist theorists have regarding the prison industrial complex in general.
