Bill S-205 — Loi modifiant la Loi sur le système correctionnel et la mise en liberté sous condition
Loi proposant des solutions de rechange à l’isolement et prévoyant une surveillance et des mesures de réparation dans le système correctionnel (Loi de Tona)
Ce projet de loi changerait la façon dont les prisons fédérales utilisent l'isolement. Il créerait des "unités d'intervention structurée" comme alternative. Les détenus devraient passer moins de temps seuls dans leur cellule. Le projet de loi exigerait aussi une évaluation de la santé mentale des détenus plus rapidement après leur arrivée en prison, soit dans les 30 jours. Si un détenu a de graves problèmes de santé mentale, il devrait être transféré à l'hôpital. Le temps passé dans une unité d'intervention structurée serait limité.
I am asking about the number of times people break peace bonds made under section 810.03. I want to know why this number is not available to the public.

Inscription gratuite — 30 sThis proposed law aims to improve the treatment of incarcerated individuals by focusing on mental health assessments, limiting time in structured intervention units, and supporting reintegration into communities, especially for Indigenous and marginalized populations. However, it relies heavily on agreements and actions by the Commissioner, which could lead to inconsistencies if not implemented properly.
Things to Watch For
- Watch to see if mental health assessments are actually available and timely.
- The definition of 'disadvantaged or minority population' is broad; it needs clear guidelines.
- The process for transferring inmates to community care requires consent from both the inmate and the community, which may limit its use.
- The law does not specify how the 'interests of justice' will be determined when denying a transfer.
- The ability to reduce sentences for unfair treatment depends on court decisions, which may be inconsistent.
- The 60-day window to apply for sentence reduction may be too short for some inmates to gather evidence.

How likely this proposed law is to be approved
This proposed law was introduced by a Senator, not the government, so it's less likely to pass. It's still in the early stages of review in the Senate, which also lowers its chances.
