No, private prisons will sacrifice quality of care and rehabilitation services for profit

This answer aligns with the NDP's stance on privatization of public services. They believe that private prisons will sacrifice quality of care and rehabilitation services for profit, which is why they advocate for public management of prisons. The NDP's opposition to the Conservative government's plan to privatize prison food services in 2013 is an example of their concern for quality and fairness in the prison system.
