Robert Clark has written a very good book about Canada’s prison system. Mr. Clark worked from 1980 until 2009 in seven different federal prisons, all located in Ontario. The book is a compilation of personal accounts based on the author’s various assignments. Since prisons can be a pipeline into homelessness, I’ve reviewed the book with great interest. My review is available here. Nick Falvo is a Calgary-based research consultant. He has a PhD in public policy.
Topics:
Nick Falvo considers the following as important: addiction, Canada, Corrections, gender critique, health care, homeless, human rights, indigenous peoples, prisons, public infrastructure, public services, Role of government, social policy
