Note: Due to rounding, percentages may not add up to 100%.
1 The percent Aboriginal in this table differs from those presented in the Adult Corrections Survey reports (Juristat and Data tables) where 'Unknown or Not Stated' responses are excluded in the percent calculations.
2 Newfoundland and Labrador: Data commencing in 2001/02 are from the new Integrated Correctional Services Survey and have been tabulated from micro data. Accordingly, comparisons to data from previous years should be made with caution. Data on Aboriginal Identity are unavailable.
3 New Brunswick: Data unavailable for 2000/01 due to changeover to a new system.
4 Manitoba: While probation admissions for 2001/02 and 2002/03 have decreased from 2000/01 levels, some of the decrease can be attributed to the implementation in 1999/00 of a new information system (COMS).
5 Total reflects data reported by the jurisdictions, excluding data from the Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Prince Edward Island.
6 Total reflects data reported by the jurisdictions, excluding data from Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island.
