Note: Excludes adult admissions to provincial and territorial correctional facilities where the most serious offence was unknown. 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 exclude those involving short periods of incarceration as these are managed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and are not reported to Statistics Canada. As such, this may result in a higher proportion of serious offences being counted in Newfoundland and Labrador than in other provinces.
