Context: Prison Watch (Ep. 1711)
Experts, and a new report say Canada’s prison system is in disarray. Close to 40 thousand families are affected by someone in prison. There is trouble brewing inside the penitentiary system. We talk with author Robert Clark, a former warden who’s written a book, Down Inside about his experiences and what he sees are the solutions, Senator Kim Pate speaks about women in prison – and Sheldon Neil speaks with former inmate Raymond Mowla who now dedicates his life to helping people in jails and prisons across our nation. And Lorna Dueck speaks with a panel of prison chaplains on the struggles, solutions, and soul care for Canada’s prison population and their families.
