I thank you for your question,
…the parliamentary secretary…
I'll answer in English. Double bunking is a normal practice in western countries. I think I can take the opportunity to thank the correctional services for their great work within our facilities, because they are making use of this in a rather clever way. Actually, Correctional Services Canada has done some studies that demonstrate that there is no link between violence and double bunking in our facility. Moreover, they are also making sure that the matching of inmates is appropriate. So this strategy is working.
As I've indicated, the numbers are low, but this is a means by which we manage the population within our facility. As you know, we have also increased our number of units over the years, but the fact of the matter remains that most of the inmates are in a single cell, although we feel that double bunking is a normal practice and that actually prisoners are not entitled to their own cells.
