  1. Data for these respondents are from the new Integrated Correctional Services Survey and have been tabulated from micro data for the years commencing as follows: Newfoundland and Labrador, 2001/2002; Nova Scotia, 2002/2003; New Brunswick, 2002/2003; Alberta, 2003/2004 Saskatchewan, 2001/2002. Accordingly, comparisons to data from previous years should be made with caution. In 2004/2005, data for these respondents have been tabulated using a revised method of determining 'most serious offence' and, as such, comparison to previous years should be made with caution.
  2. Offence data unavailable due to a changeover to a new case management system.
  3. Offence data unavailable due to major system development work.
  4. Nunavut - Data are provided by the informatic court services. Nunavut admissions to community corrections represent the unique number of persons admitted to a particular legal status during the year and not the number of distinct admissions.
Note: Calculations for percent distribution are based on total probation admissions excluding those where major offence is not known.
