Cette situation crée des pressions pour la province, qui, si je ne m'abuse, a fait une demande à cet égard au gouvernement fédéral récemment. De plus, les prisonniers reconnus coupables de crimes de compétence fédérale doivent purger leur peine au pénitencier de Dorchester, notamment les Autochtones, qui constituent une proportion anormalement élevée de la population carcérale.
This has not only put a strain on the province, which I think has approached the federal government recently with a request on that subject, but it also means that those prisoners who are convicted of federal crimes have had to serve their sentences in Dorchester, including Aboriginal people, who make up an unduly large portion of the prison population.
