*Persons admitted to provincial correctional facilities for adults in Ontario in 2000.
†To decrease the risk of identifying individuals, we indicated ≤5 as the number of people in cells in which there were 5 or fewer persons. For the percentage, we indicated the true percentage if the value didn’t change for numerators between 0 and 5, or else we used 5 as the numerator and indicated the value as less than or equal to the result.
