Sentenced custody is the detention of offenders convicted of a crime in a federal (two years or more) facility.
Sentenced custody is the detention of offenders convicted of a crime in a provincial/territorial (less than two years) facility.
Remand is the detention of a person in custody while awaiting a further court appearance. These persons have not been sentenced and can be held for a number of reasons (e.g., risk that they won't appear for their court date, danger to themselves and/or others, risk to re-offend). Remand is the responsibility of provincial/territorial correctional services.
Note:
Remand and sentenced custody rates at the provincial and territorial level exclude Prince Edward Island and Alberta due to the unavailability of data for part of the period covered. Rates are calculated per 100,000 adult population (18 years and over) using revised July 1st population estimates from Statistics Canada, Demography Division. Rates may not match those previously published in other reports.
