The Canadian Correctional System is responsible for managing individuals who have been convicted of crimes. It operates at both federal and provincial levels, with federal institutions handling sentences of two years or more, while provincial facilities manage shorter sentences. The system focuses on rehabilitation, reintegration, and public safety. In addition to incarceration, the system includes various programs such as parole and probation, which allow offenders to reintegrate into society under supervision. The Correctional Service of Canada oversees federal institutions, while each province has its own correctional authority to manage local facilities and programs.
