More Prisons, More Prisons, Must Build More Prisons
Stephen Harper's faith-based crime wave took another hammering from the latest report showing that crime rates in Canada continue on their steady decline, reaching the lowest levels since the early 70s. That's "faith based" in that he chooses to follow his beliefs even while flatly ignoring four decades of statistical reality.
But what about, oh I don't know, MURDER? Sorry, Steve, that's down too - to the lowest level since 1972.
It would be nice if Steve could find a less expensive fetish than prison construction to indulge. Maybe he could take up cross-dressing or golf.

But don't you know that the problem is all the "unreported" crime. Once people are confident there is enough room at the gaol, they'll promptly report all that hidden crime.......Imagine the left out irony tags in the above statement!
I guess that makes perfect sense to people immersed in superstition-based thinking. I enjoyed that, Koot. Thanks.
But they will be privately run prisons that will make a profit for the owners and the inmates will be contracted out to business at lower rates than imported foreign workers. Our new mandatory sentences will help fill the jails and reduce unemployment. That's why we have 'economists' as our political rulers.
He could take up art. You know paint his portrait on the side of big buildings in major cities. A few statues scattered about to remind us of who is boss.
MOS...I am so astounded at your pronouncement. Don't you know, he is creating jobs? Smile!!
