SPECIAL HANDLING UNIT (SHU)
GENERAL PROGRAM
1.
PURPOSE
Special Handling Units are facilities providing programs for inmates who
have been identified as particularly dangerous, as defined in Commissioner's
Directive n ° 800-4-04.
2.
POLICY
Facilities and programs must therefore provide:
-
•
3.
protection for staff and inmates;
protection for the inmate from repercussions of his
inclination to dangerous and violent behaviour;
opportunity for each inmate to earn his return to the
population of a maximum security institution.
PHASES
The C.D.G.'s general SHU program consists of three phases:
a) Phase I:
observation;
h) Phase II:
participation, observation, behaviour analysis,
limited association with other inmates;
c)
responsibility, ability to live with other inmates,
observation.
Phase III:
It should be pointed out that the program, in accordance with CD 800-4-04,
includes a fourth phase at a maximum security institution.
4.
ASPECTS OF PHASES
Phase I: Observation
The inmate, transferred to the SHU following a decision of the National SHU
Review Committee, is placed in phase I for a standard period of 4 weeks, so
as to allow the staff to observe his conduct, behaviour, tendencies, and
abilities.
The purpose of this phase is to allow the inmate to cool off and calm down
following events caused by his violent behaviour, and thereby reduce the risk
of further violence.
To ensure the effectiveness of this short cooling off and observation phase,
activities are kept to a minimum.
Phase II: Participation, observation,
with other inmates.
behaviour analysis, limited association
In this phase, the inmate is primarily expected to prove himself through improved
behaviour, reduced aggressiveness, and control over his aggressiveness. Violence,
whether verbal or physical, is prohibited.
The inmate must also demonstrate his ability to get along with fellow inmates
and staff.
This phase usually lasts 12 to 15 months.
•
Activity privileges are all subject to monthly (CD 800-4-04)and semi-annual
(National Committee) observation and analysis, as set out under the Individual
Planned Program (IPP).
Phase III:
responsibility, ability to live with other inmates
During this phase, which precedes a return to a maximum security institution,
the inmate, must display a responsible attitude in his private life and his
work, and toward other inmates and the staff.
This phase is 6 months to 1 year long. It differs from the others in that
after 9 months, if the inmate is not considered ready to leave the SHU, he
returns to phase II.
All activities under analysis are primarily aimed at allowing the inmate to demonstrate his ability to control violent tendencies and live in a normal group.
5.
INTER-PHASE
Given the objectives of the SHU, inmates who do not show the required improvement
during a phase may be retrograded.
The inmate who receives a major offence report and is found guilty may be retrograded by one phase or even brought to phase I, depending on the seriousness of the
offence (s).
It is the institutional SHU Committee that decides under the warding authority
the transfer from one phase to an other
This committee meet every two weeks, the week that follows the institutional
executive committee.
When an inmate ask to go on volontary segregation, he will not be authorized
to go back in normal association before the institutional SHU Committee
decides on his return.
When involved in acts of violence among inmates, the offenders, having
served their sentence in dissociation, will stay two (2) months in phase I.
Pending on their good behaviour during this period, they will return in
phase II and will continue to proceed normally towards the following phases.

CRITÈRES DE TRANSFÈREMENT
TRANSFER CRITERIA
9.
8.
The prime consideration for transfer
of an inmate to a Special Handling
Unit shall be that he is assessed to
be particularly dangerous and, therefore, prejudicial to the maintenance
of good order in the institution.
Inmates shall not be transferred to a
Special Handling Unit on suspicion
alone.
Reasonable
and probable
grounds for believing an inmate intends or is likely to commit a violent or dangerous act must be supported by documentation.
9. La principale raison qui doit motiver
le transfèrement d'un détenu dans une
Unité spéciale de détention est le
fait qu'il est considéré comme particulièrement dangereux et qu'il peut,
par conséquent, nuire au maintien de
la discipline dans l'établissement.
Les détenus ne doivent pas être
transférés dans une unité spéciale de
détention sur des motifs de suspicion
seulement. Lorsque l'on s'appuie sur
des motifs raisonnables et probables
pour croire qu'un détenu a l'intention ou est susceptible de commettre
un acte violent ou dangereux, on doit
fournir des documents à l'appui.
RESPONSIBILITIES AND IMPLEMENTATION
RESPONSABILITÉS ET MISE EN OEUVRE
10. When the Warden is satisfied that an
inmate should be placed in a Special
Handling Unit because he is considered to be particularly dangerous,
the inmate shall first be placed in
administrative segregation (section
40.(1) of the Penitentiary Service
Regulations) and be given written
notification, before the end of the
next working day, of the reasons for
that action.
10. Le directeur qui est convaincu qu'un
détenu devrait être placé dans une
Unité spéciale de détention parce
qu'il est considéré comme particulièrement dangereux doit d'abord le placer en ségrégation administrative
(article 40.(1) du Règlement sur le
service des pénitenciers) et lui en
donner la raison par écrit avant la
fin du jour ouvrable suivant.

Commissioner of the region
11. Le directeur doit présenter à l'Administration centrale une recommandation de transfèrement dans une Unité
spéciale de détention '(Comité national chargé de l'examen des cas d'unité spéciale de détention), par l'entremise du sous-commissaire de la région.
12. The program of a Special Handling
Unit shall be designed so that each
individual inmate shall have the opportunity and responsibility to earn,
insofar as is practicable, his unconditional return to the general inmate
population of a maximum security institution.
12. Le programme de l'Unité spéciale de
détention doit être conçu de façon à
donner à chaque détenu l'occasion et
la responsabilité de mériter, dans la
mesure du possible, sa réintégration
inconditionnelle dans la population
carcérale générale d'un établissement
à sécurité maximale.
13. Within the limits imposed by the physical resources available, the program shall consist of four phases:
13. Dans les limites imposées par les
ressources physiques disponibles, le
programme doit comprendre quatre
phases:

association;
c. phase 3 - réintégration graduelle;
et
d. phase 4 - conditional transfer to
à maximum security institution.
d. phase 4 - transfèrement conditionnel à un établissement à sécurité
maximale.
14. An inmate in phase 1 is in administrative segregation by virtue of an
order issued by the Warden, pursuant
to section 40.(1)(a) of the Penitentiary Service Regulations. The case
of each such inmate will be reviewed,
pursuant to section 40. of the Penitentiary Service Regulations to determine whether or not he should be
permitted to associate with other inmates.
14. Un détenu qui en est à la phase 1 du
programme est en ségrégation administrative en vertu d'un ordre émis par
le directeur, conformément à l'article 40.(1) a) du Règlement sur le

conformément à l'article 40.
du Règlement sur le service des pénitenciers, pour déterminer s'il doit lui
être permis ou non de se joindre aux
autres.

Remuneration
A.
Inmate of the S.H.U. without work are considered hs
involuntary unemployed and payed at grade 1 level, at
the rate of $1.60 per day from Monday to Friday inclusive.
B.
Work lists are prepared for some work post. Everyone is
obliged to take his turn to do this cleaning.
Other work post, like range, common room and row cleaner
range representative and sport equipment responsable are considered permanent job position.
A refusal to work will change the situation as follows, you
will be changed from grade 1, involuntary unemployed to grade 0
voluntary unemployed.
C.
Inmates in phase II at grade 1 are paid as follows:
10 days to $1.60 - $16.00
less 25% for compulsory savings;
less 3.00 for recreation fund
les 1.00 for inmate welfare fund
In the case of phase II inmates who work for a period of 2 weeks,
they are paid in the following scale:
10 days x level 2
•
1.
Please note that, payment for objects broken voluntarily is
taken from your current account (canteen fund);
2.
If you are placed in detention due to an offense report you
are not paid that is grade O.
233.
18.
Remission
New legislation effective April 1, 1978 stipulates that after each
30 days period in the penitentiary, an inmate may earn 15 days'
remission (1/3 of his sentence).
Any major or minor offence changes the amount of possible remission.
For example, an inmate who is given thirty days detention automatically
serves at least ten extra days.
All reports, orders and warnings given to an inmate to improve his
behaviour or attitude result in a loss of earned remission and days
being added to the sentence. For example, the second time an inmate
receives a written notice to clean his cell, a certain number of days
are added to his sentence.
Consequently an inmate can, through good conduct and positive participation in the institutional program, shorten his sentence by one third.
However, bad behaviour and a negative attitude result in a longer sentence.
This is something to think about - lost time cannot be regained under any
circumstances.
Remission committee
Each month the institution's remission committee has to decide whether each
inmate has behaved well and participated in the program in a positive manner.
This committee has to determine the number of days of remission that each
inmate has lost.
If an inmate has earned all his days of remission, he will not be sent a
notice. If, on the other hand, he has lost days of remission, he will be
advised of this in writing.
