1. The probation rate is the averaged month-end counts of probation per 10,000 youth population.
2. Due to the unavailability of data, total probation excludes Prince Edward Island, Ontario, Northwest Territories and Nunavut for all reference years.
3. The reduction in probation between 2003/2004 and 2004/2005 may be partially attributable to a change in data capture systems.
4. Ontario 12- to 15-year-olds are excluded in 2002/2003.
