Improvement is inevitable for the future, whether it be inventions, recipes, societies, or to better oneself, things are meant to evolve for the greater good. Along the pathway of improvement there are always setbacks or weights that can make the journey more tiresome and less efficient. Civilizations across the globe can deteriorate from even minor issues and clearly suffer vaster damages from more significant problems. That is why laws have been a key tool to help prevent such issues within governments, which provide safety as well as to allow there to be improvement for the future generations. However, laws are not always followed because people have the free will to do what they wish to partake in, good or bad. Gangs are vast contributors …show more content…
In low income neighbourhoods, drugs can be a serious problem since many do not lead ample lives, which consequently leads to pursuing schedule one and two drugs to fill empty voids. As a means of obtaining money and power, gangs utilize the illegal drug market to uphold territories, taking ownership of particular areas causing rivalries between gangs which induces danger within areas amongst communities. Since nearly half, or forty-eight percent of Canada’s youth gangs are eighteen or younger, can provide the conclusion that much of the drug market is brought into the confines of schools and educational facilities. Furthermore, this concludes that innocent children and young adults are at a high risk of poisonous educational learning environments rendering many heavily populated cities, such as Toronto and Quebec city, unsafe and dangerous (Youth Gangs). Not only are youth gangs a problem across Canada, let alone the world, but also more organized and established gangs. Gangs across Canada that are well known are: the Bloods, Crips, MS-13, Asian Assassins, Hells Angels, and many more (Canadian Chat).

These gangs of criminals vastly outnumber workers who operate the institutions, this makes it dangerous but most of all, very difficult to be aware of everything that is going on which unfortunately lends an advantage to the gangs of inmates. This form of disadvantage allows gangs to smuggle in drugs such as marijuana, tobacco, cocaine, heroine, meth, and more types of narcotics. Although smuggled drugs pose a problem, this concealment also means other prohibited contraband like cell phones and knives are brought in to murder fellow inmates and communicate with the outside. These almost fully defeat the purpose of prisons, there is not much good other than confining inmates to serve their sentences, if a prison cannot prevent further violence and drug use not much else can (The Atlantic). Majority of this corruption is to blame on gangs and their never ending determination to render laws as more of a decision, rather than a law to be followed with
