Can we just start treating all people in Canada the same? No more healing lodge garbage. Regular prison for manslaughter.

So these violent criminals can do their time in a 'healing lodge', even with sentences of ten years or more. Are those after the Gladue sentencing guidelines have been applied? Incredible but true.

Murder is a traditional practice in the community. It's sacred. Only half joking.

Violent offenders, regardless of ethnicity, should NOT be eligible for minimum-security incarceration of any description. Period.

Anyone with half a brain can see this is NOT working! Time for change! Need for tighter security! The healing doesn`t work if they are escaping? Bad is bad! Time to move on!
