Again I never said that. We aren't so poor to not afford our own work-prison in this country.
I know what you are trying to do here, but nice try pinning me to be the likes of Trump. For an enabler of lawlessness in our society, you should be ashamed of yourself , and especially so when attempting to frame those who speak up to elicit hate against them.

The Riverview facilities are a 1:1 replacement of old facilities plus 11 beds (i.e. no significant change), and the new detox centre is still pending. They're a start. We need more.
If the current facilities are full, and admission is voluntary, then clearly many victims want to quit. Simple logic, easy to understand.
Yes, context IS key. If every BC neighbourhood is already turning up their nose at supportive housing for mostly nonviolent tenants, which one would be willing to accept a prison and outdoor work program for actively violent criminals? Correct: none.

Cool it: you sound triggered about putting criminals to work in prison and pay back their debt to society. Criminals/folks trying to murder themselves through a slow-death process do not have to "volunteer" to serve their time; it should be mandatory. Fact is, unlike what you suggested, many violent inmates released from prison are housed in many of the supportive housing. A work-camp prison can be found in the middle of nowhere, and not within any jurisdiction. This country is big enough.
