Supplementary notes

The Canadian government fiscal year runs from April 1 through March 31.
The source provides the following information: "The total does not necessarily represent all provinces and territories as there are variations in the availability of data for certain jurisdictions and years.
Releases represent the end of a legal status in correctional services and do not necessarily represent the end of supervision by correctional services. The same person can be included several times in the release counts where the individual moves from one type of legal status to another (e.g., from remand to sentenced custody and then to community services). As such, releases represent the number of movements within a fiscal year out of remand, sentenced custody and the community statuses regardless of the individual's preceding or following legal status."
