One last little point then.
You should know that many of these other countries don't take the same approach to imprisonment that we do. In the United States, the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984 abolished rehabilitation as a factor. You don't send people to prison for rehabilitation in the United States.
I've included in the materials I've given you the purposes and principles of sentencing in Canada under the Criminal Code, the purposes and principles of corrections under the Corrections and Conditional Release Act, and the purposes and principles of conditional release, which is part II of the Corrections and Conditional Release Act, to show you what our Canadian system does.
If one looked to Japan, as an example, the conditions of confinement there go back to a Charles Dickens sort of era, in terms of silence and limitations on communications and this sort of a thing. What happens with people if you leave them there and don't bring them back, in trying to affect their rehabilitation, is that they get angry and embittered and you make them more upset and more likely, in my respectful submission, to come back and reoffend.
