Post-Warrant Expiry Readmission

Tables 153-165

The post-warrant expiry readmission analysis provides an important insight into the offender’s ability in the long term to live a crime-free life in the community after completion of his or her sentence. This information is useful for strategic planning and assessment of the effectiveness of the law, policy and operations.

  • Ten to fifteen years after sentence completion (for sentences completed between 2003/04 and 2007/08), 27% of federal offenders had returned on a federal sentence as of March 31, 2018.
  • Over the long-term (for sentences completed between 2003/04 and 2007/08), offenders released at warrant expiry were over four times more likely to be readmitted on a new federal sentence than offenders who completed their sentences on full parole. Offenders released on statutory release were only slightly less likely to be readmitted on a federal sentence after their sentence completion than offenders released at warrant expiry. 
  • When looking at the readmission rate for a violent offence (for sentences completed between 2003/04 and 2007/08), offenders released at warrant expiry were more than thirteen times more likely to return to a federal institution because of a new violent offence than offenders who completed their sentences on full parole, and one and a half times more likely than offenders who completed their sentences on statutory release.
  • Over the long term (for sentences completed between 2003/04 and 2007/08), offenders who completed their sentences on full parole were more likely to be readmitted on a new federal sentence for a non-violent offence than a violent offence, while offenders released at warrant expiry and those who completed their sentences on statutory release were more likely to be readmitted for having committed a violent offence than a non violent offence.

Figure 37. Post-Warrant Expiry Readmission Rate by Offence Type (for sentences completed between 2003/04 and 2007/08 )(%)

Offence Type Full Parole Statutory Release Warrant Expiry
Schedule I-sex 2.7 12.3 23.5
Schedule I-non-sex 7.2 32.4 41.1
Schedule II 7.1 29.0 44.4*
Non-Scheduled 12.7 43.4 41.1*

*Low numbers

  • Over the long term (for sentences completed between 2003/04 and 2007/08), offenders serving sentences for non scheduled offences who completed their sentences either on full parole or statutory release were the most likely to be readmitted on a new federal sentence, as were drug offenders who were released at warrant expiry. Offenders serving sentences for sex offences were the least likely to return to federal custody after sentence completion.
  • Over the long term, of offenders who completed their sentences either on full parole, statutory release or were released at warrant expiry, Indigenous offenders were the most likely to be readmitted on a new federal sentence.

Region Full Parole Statutory Release Warrant Expiry
Atlantic 11.6 35.6 40.9
Quebec 8.1 33.4 36.4
Ontario 6.8 31.3 27.9
Prairie 9.0 32.2 39.2
Pacific 6.0 34.5 26.8
  • During the same time period, offenders from the Atlantic region had the highest rates of readmission on a federal sentence, whether they completed their sentences on full parole (12%), statutory release (36%) or were released at warrant expiry (41%). The lowest rates were reported in the Pacific region for offenders who completed their sentences on full parole (6%) and those released at warrant expiry (27%), and in the Ontario region for offenders who completed their sentences on statutory release (31%).
