Pg 2 of 2 If you or any of your peers are not aware of these lobbyists, let me include a quote:
"According to its report, for-profit prison operators are “working to make money through harsh policies and longer sentences”. The Justice Policy Institute states that private industry hasn’t merely responded to the nation’s incarceration woes, it has actively sought to create the market conditions (ie. more prisoners) necessary to expand its business. It states that prison population has increased 16% while incarceration terms increased 120% (federal) and 33% (state). "
For the real reasons behind C10, pls see the following:

Always remember - If you don't stand for something ........ .................you'll fall for anything!!
I am aware that there is another major controversy brewing regarding C-10, ready to take over the headlines - and that is the huge amounts of money doled out by the two American private prison corporations that lobbied for this bill. Mr. Harper seems to think that Canadians aren't smart enough to grasp his motivation - in that respect, I can tell you he is dead wrong!
