Yes. It is always more difficult to offer programs in maximum security facilities. The prison population is often fragmented. That means that certain units cannot mix with others, because there are gang-related safety issues, among others. It is difficult to find enough candidates to offer certain programs. This is an operational problem for Corrections Canada.
The routines are often very difficult to manage. What finally happens is that very few programs are offered every year in maximum security establishments where the majority of the prison population is indigenous.
