1. Subsequent legal status refers to the person's legal status within 24 hours after release from remand. 2. The number of releases in this table do not correspond to those in other publications as, for the purpose of this analysis, the number of releases in one involvement with corrections was capped at a maximum of five. Note: Intermittent sentences and other temporary detention (such as Immigration Hold) are not shown and account for approximately 2% of the total. Excludes Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Manitoba, Alberta, British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut due to the unavailability of data. Remand admissions in Newfoundland and Labrador involving short periods of incarceration are managed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and are not reported to Statistics Canada. As such, Newfoundland and Labrador is excluded. Source: Statistics Canada, Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics, Integrated Correctional Services Survey. |
