- Form a national task force to end over-representation of Indigenous peoples and Black Canadians in the federal prison system.
- Develop culturally appropriate bail programmes.
- Increase restorative justice, judicial discretion in sentencing.
- Further integrate the Gladue principles.
To address the chronic overrepresentation of Indigenous peoples and Black Canadians in the federal prison population, we will put in place a national task force to develop a roadmap to end this systemic injustice. Working alongside Indigenous communities, this approach will include addressing the need for greater judicial discretion in sentencing, developing culturally appropriate bail programs, increasing restorative and community justice programs, and better integrating Gladue principles in court proceedings. We will also develop and implement an African Canadian Justice Strategy, working with Black Canadians with experience and expertise on criminal justice issues.
