Correctional Service of Canada is to be credited. It does a very good job of assessing need and screening for a variety of things, including educational attainment and intellectual capacity. Matching program interventions to that need is now really the trick, but it's more than just providing educational opportunity and it's more than simply raising numeracy and literacy levels from perhaps grade 8 to grade 10 or grade 12. We're also in an increasingly digital age. Other jurisdictions are well ahead of Canada in terms of embracing digital technology in corrections and education, in contact with the outside world, etc.
We've made these observations in the past and we've made recommendations to the Correctional Service of Canada. It's all part of a larger strategic approach that's needed that includes not only access to digital technology but also to basic library materials and ensuring that the money that CSC does spend on basic education gives the best return on investment. That's achieved through how and when offenders who need that kind of support can access that kind of support. It has to do with the timing of assessments and access to programs, etc.
