Note: Additional data are available on CANSIM (Tables 251-0021, 251-0022, 251-0025, 251-0026 and 251-0028). Admissions represent movement from one legal status to another. For instance an individual who moves from remand to sentenced custody is counted as one admission to remand and one to sentenced custody. The calculation of percentages excludes admissions for which the information was unknown. Admissions data excludes Alberta due to the unavailability of data.
