Dave joins a discussion on changes to the policies in Canadian jails on drug possession and use, and how that may affect efforts to prepare offenders for release.To start the show, Adam and Paul discuss this week's arrest of Adam's former law partner, Jason Boudrot, over six years after he admitted to taking money from client trust accounts, for charges of theft and breach of trust.
