加拿大马尼托巴省正在提出新的立法,以防止监禁患有肺结核等传染病的个人。 Manitoba, Canada, is proposing new legislation to prevent the incarceration of individuals with communicable diseases like tuberculosis. 这种改变是在对现行制度提出批评之后作出的,现行制度对加拿大土著居民的影响格外严重。 This change follows criticism of the current system, which has disproportionately affected Indigenous Canadians. 如果该法案获得通过,将要求个人在保健设施而不是监狱接受治疗,并需要省法院法官批准拘留令。 The bill, if passed, would require individuals to be treated in healthcare facilities instead of jails and would need a provincial court judge's approval for detention orders.
