Description

Quebec’s detention centers are getting a major overhaul: starting in September, inmates at Roberval will wear uniforms for a year-long pilot program designed to stop contraband smuggling, improve security, and reduce gang symbols—all while inmates craft their own pants in a sewing workshop. This move follows a $35 million security upgrade and comes with new rules allowing staff to report drone-related contraband and harsher penalties for offenses like smuggling phones or damaging property, all while prioritizing inmate well-being.
