The Canadian Company Staffing ‘Alligator Alcatraz’

Carney’s government awarded GardaWorld millions in contracts and isn’t ruling out more.

EXCERPT: "A Canadian company is providing the muscle for a new Florida detention centre dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” — and the Canadian government isn’t ruling out working with the security giant in the future.

This wishy-washy stance when it comes to jaw-dropping cruelty tied to the United States is yet another stroke in an increasingly clear portrait: one of Prime Minister Mark Carney with his elbows firmly planted to his sides when it comes to big business.

Quebec-based GardaWorld, which has reportedly been awarded a US$8-million contract for work on the U.S. detention site, has also been awarded more than $100 million in Canadian government contracts since Carney won the Liberal leadership in March of this year.

Most of these contracts were for work relating to the Canada Border Services Agency, or CBSA, valued together at more than $75 million. . . . . "
