Conclusion |
As long ago as June 1995, Professor
Charles Thomas, the now retired “guru” of prison
privatisation (see above), argued in the Globe & Mail
that, as far as prison privatisation was concerned, “the
debate is over.”74 This was, perhaps, wishful thinking.
In Ontario, that debate has not
started since one side - the government - will not come to
the table. But it is a debate that should be had before it
is too late.
It would be ironic if the government
of Ontario ignored the evidence from the U.S., U.K.,
Australia and New Zealand and implemented a policy that more
enlightened governments are now trying to extract themselves
from.
