Mr. Chair, I have to say that those are two exceptionally good questions.
In terms of the first question, what you saw at Drumheller is our expectation across the country. Through our security intelligence staff, through working with all the other groups of staff in the institution, the gathering of that information, the analysis of that information, and the dissemination of it back out is key to having a safe environment. As well, working with our other criminal justice partners, such as local police and even in some cases CSIS and Canada Border Services Agency, is key to having an environment that's going to be safe.
As part of the investments we've received over the last few years, we received investment to increase our security intelligence capacity, to allow us to do that very thing you've talked about. And I can attest, Mr. Chair, that your picture and name don't show up on any of our i2 charts at all, just to alleviate any concerns of any of the other members.
In terms of the issue of incentives, again, one of the things I'll refer to is Bill C-10. One of the things that I'm glad to see in there is the item that will give me the opportunity to address the very issue of incentives.
I have a very quick story, Mr. Chair. Right now, if Mr. Price and I were two inmates with relatively the same length of sentence, the same kind of offence, and Mr. Price, being a much better inmate than I, decides he's going to follow his correctional plan, he's going to participate in programs, his behaviour is going to be good, and he'll ultimately apply for whatever discretionary release he may be entitled to, he's entitled a series of privileges in the institution. If I choose not to follow my correctional plan and my behaviour is not serious enough to move me to maximum security or put me into segregation, the only difference between Mr. Price and me is that I probably won't get a discretionary release, a day parole, or full parole, but I'm entitled to the same privileges as Mr. Price, as it stands right now under the Corrections and Conditional Release Act.
We don't believe that's the kind of incentive regime that's going to work in terms of moulding people to be accountable for their actions. This goes back, Mr. Chair, to one of the questions around inmate accountability.
There is a provision now in Bill C-10 that would give me the authority to establish the appropriate scheme for incentives for individuals who are engaged in their correctional plan versus those who are not engaged, and we look forward to that piece being passed as well.
