In 2005, Canada declared Yom ha-Shoah – the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, known as the Day of the Holocaust – to be Holocaust Memorial Day. In September 2017, Canada inaugurated the National Holocaust Monument in Ottawa to ensure we never forget the lives lost or the lessons learned. http://ow.ly/fiCE30hArJ7
What does uOttawa professor Marie-Eve Sylvestre think of the criminal justice system?: “Despite its good intentions, it doesn’t succeed in resolving social issues because that’s not necessarily its mission - it’s not necessarily the objective it set for itself.”
Those suffering from mental illness and addictions are overrepresented in the criminal justice system. Often these individuals face other issues that make them more vulnerable, such as poverty, or previous trauma.
How can we transform the Canadian criminal justice system to better understand substance-use and mental health issues? Share how you think we can address these complex social issues http://ow.ly/ve3n30i1ghA #CndJusReform
