Mr. Harper:
There are things called test markets. In terms of mandatory sentences there are a number of test markets in the lower 48 states of the United States. In all of those markets mandatory sentences have only been a boon to prison builders.
What brings on this note to you Mr. Prime Minister is something I just read on the front page of your hometown paper, the Calgary Herald, written by [ironic name, doncha think?] Jeff Davis.
"The cost of the federal prison system has risen 86 per cent since the Harper government took over in 2006, government reports show."
Stop.
Now.
You are spending over 100 000 . 00 $ of our dollars per prisoner and, for some insane reason, you want to keep everyone in jail for a long period of time.
Stop.
Now.
Yeah, keep Paul Bernardo in forever. Russell Williams and that Pickton fellow too. But jeez, you have went way too far. Like if a guy gets caught with a couple of plants you want to spend half a mill prosecuting him and jailing him.
Stop.
Now.
You are welcome.
