The Cost And The Value

Reintegration - It's coming

I've said it a hundred times and I'll keep saying it, we don't all stay in prison. Escorted and Unescorted Temporary Absences are common and part of the process. These are important for the public and inmates alike to understand. These are not arbitrary absences, they are earned. If you are headed to or know someone in prison, these are extremely important to obtain in the pursuit towards day parole. I also examine the latest episode of the YouTube series from the Correctional Service of Canada :CSC Shift - Searching the Max. I offer a point of view from someone that has seen behind the edits and helps shine a light on what is said and what is not being said.

What really is the societal role of prisons in Canada? Welcome bacm to Season 4, this episodes explores what we are getting, or should be getting, when it comes to our prison system.

Reality Shift

Welcome to this special episode of Do Your Own Time. Recently CSC began a series called Shift where they explore the Canadian prison system and give you a look inside. I am giving you my perspective on what they are saying, comparing it to what I experienced. Some audio clips were sourced from the CSC YouTube video and were used in the making of this episode. To find the original video in its entirety, which I encourage you to watch in advance of listening to this episode, it is available on the CSC YouTube titled The Saturday Shift.

Building Our Future

After parole, it's time to rejoin the world. A lot needs to go in to preparing for that, for me it was a steady pay cheque. Prisons do have jobs and training opportunities for inmates to help them succeed after release. Some are practical, most, sadly, are not.
