Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Federal Training Centre : The Federal Training Centre (FTC) has a cell capacity of 377, divided among 5 different living centres. Double occupancy resulted in an increase in the inmate population to 419 as of September 24, 1998.

Like any other minimum-security institution, the primary purpose of the FTC is to help inmates prepare for their return to the community, in the short or medium term.

Because of the physical environment and the availability of more structured programming, the FTC is well suited for its mission of accepting long-sentence inmates, as long as they have begun to make progress and will not present an undue risk to the community by being in a minimum-security institution. That is why the population profile consistently includes a hundred or so inmates serving a life sentence.

Academic instruction takes up the largest share of the institution's programs. There are also programs for substance abusers (STOP), men with family violence issues (CONTRECOUPS) and long-sentence inmates (REPÈRE). In addition, in collaboration with the East/West District, the FTC offers the "Time Out" program, which is for offenders whose conditional release is temporarily suspended.
