In order to prepare for this, I listened to ParlVu and I was really enthused by that idea. I'm unaware of how it's communicated to the front line. If I had not listened to it, I wouldn't have known about it. I'm very enthused about hearing that kind of stuff, because I did work in the community before I worked with corrections. When I worked at an aboriginal organization, if someone came up to me and talked about section 84, I asked, “What?” I didn't know what it was. Then I came into the field and I had an understanding of what it was.
Some of the communities don't know what they don't know. When I've gone into some of the communities and done some release planning with them in the past, their capacity is not there. They want to work with offenders, but the knowledge and the capacity and the resources are just not there. We need to do it in partnership with Public Safety, because they can't do it in isolation. We should be working alongside them.
