Thank you very much for that.
What I'd like to see us talk about on the committee in our recommendations is, one, how do we not get these types of persons in our maximum security prisons, or even medium, for that matter? How can we divert them after they've committed a crime?
You mentioned in response to one of the questions that some of them may have committed such a serious crime that there needs to be a certain level of security that may not be in existence currently. I'm referring to, of course, our experience in Saskatoon, where they basically have switched the institution from a prison to a hospital. They treat their people more like patients rather than inmates. And we saw quite a diversity.
So if you could, in as succinct a way as possible—and I know that can be different, but just hit on the key notes—talk about once they're in the court system, how we can divert them to the proper location. The practical part that we're dealing with here, as a country, is that we're heading into deficit, as is the rest of the industrialized world, or the whole world almost, so we may be prepared to put some funding in, but maybe somewhere along the line here today you could talk about maybe reallocating funds from things that don't work to things that do, and you could comment on that. And then perhaps you could comment on what do we do with people afterwards. You've already talked about that a bit, and you mentioned two places, one in Toronto, Operation Springboard, and the St. Leonard's Society.
So I wonder if you could talk about that.
