    So Canadians are the same as Americans in that they get their jollies off with prison for punishment not rehabilitation?

      Our criminal code has written into it that prison exists for rehabilitation. Whether the average citizen understands, apprecistes or respects that is another story.

      You are deliberately choosing a calculated, malicious interpretation of a single wors in my off-the-cuff comment.

      Jail in Canada exists (legally) for rehab. I have no faith whatsoever that Didulo can be rehabilitated, but as long as she is allowed access to the public, she will be a danger to them and to Canada.

      So she has to be locked up, and we need to make a good-faith attempt to help her rehab.

      But personally, I just want her stopped and kept away from people, because she’s a danger.

        And there’s zero other way to mitigate it without having her “rot” in a state run abuse machine?

        Why don’t you just push for her execution and reinstatement of the death penalty at that point.

          She has proven she cannot behave in a way that doesn’t defraud, hurt, divide, extort, isolate and otherwise act in way that are contrary to what civil society can tolerate.

          Everyone should be given a chance at rehabilitation.

          She needs to be isolated from the population until she has proven she will not seek to harm people.

          If she refuses to seek rehabilitation while incarcerated that’s on her, and the consequences are to be incarcerated until she proves she’s rehabilitated. IF she is found incompetent she needs round the clock treatment away from other impressionable patients.

          This Woman has caused emense harm and kid gloves are a half measure and will only embolden other con artists to do the same.

          Did you seriously just jump to implying the previous poster should push for her execution?

            No, I used hyperbole to point out how extreme their wish for them to “rot” away for life is.

            I abhor the death penalty.

                It’s all good, I understand most people in the world hold garbage views. It’s why the current state of things is so bad after all.

                    Basic empathy and humanity, as well as upholding ethical standards.

                    This whole thread has really been disappointing. To learn that Canadians are so much like Americans is really tragic.

                Good one mate, can tell you workshopped that hard.

                No I’m just a leftist who actually upholds his ethics around incarceration despite how much I may dislike the perpetrator.

                    There’s no need to sit and meticulously explain something to someone who does not want to receive information.

        I don’t know, I’m not an expert in that field.

        I also advocate for climate action without knowing the solution to climate change. It’s horrible how I am for things without being a professional in them, eh?

      Yup. Many don’t know prison labour is a thing in canadian prisons either. Who builds the office furniture for the public service? Oh yeah, it’s Corcan!

        We’re pretty good on the Covid front here, so it’s not suggested or necessary these days. But I get my flu shot yearly.

        Sure, because US states with high rates of incarceration have less crime? Let’s do the same thing over and expect a different result.
