Special Handling Unit

Special Handling Unit

Die Special Handling Unit (SHU), genannt „The Shu“, ist das Höchstsicherheitsgefängnis Kanadas. Es wurde 1968 eröffnet und befindet sich in dem Ort Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines im Südwesten der Provinz Québec. Betrieben wird es von der Strafvollzugs-Organisation Correctional Service Canada. Es hat gegenwärtig eine Kapazität von 165 Insassen, im Jahr 2007 war es mit 146 Personen belegt. Die Wärter mit Kontakt zu den Gefangenen tragen keine Waffen, um zu vermeiden, dass Insassen sich welche verschaffen.
