Detainees Guards: Immigrant Detainees and Health Care

detainees guards: In addition, a community supervision program will be developed for released detainees, according to Huffington Post Canada. Guards stand outside the gates of an immigrant holding centre in Laval, Que., on August 15, 2016. The federal government will also move ahead with plans to expand the range of alternatives to locking up immigrants, with the aim of making detention a last resort, said Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale. Goodale announced the details Monday during a visit to the aging Laval facility. The Canadian Red Cross Society has found numerous shortcomings at facilities for immigrant detainees, including overcrowding and lack of mental health care. The Canada Border Services Agency holds people who are considered a flight risk or a danger to the public and those whose identities cannot be confirmed. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
