Justice

During question period on justice, Conservative MP Arpan Khanna asked the minister to permanently stop a prison program that supplies paper straws, saying inmates could use them to snort drugs, and raised the case of a convicted child killer receiving escorted outings. Liberal minister Gary Anandasangaree replied that he had already answered the question, said the Parole Board had postponed the decision in question, honoured the memory of Heather Thomas, and said the government wants to protect victims and strengthen the justice system, inviting the opposition to work with it on improving the laws.Written by AI from the debate.
