I am not sure which data you are referring to. It is true that a risk group was mentioned, but overall, the group's unemployment rate is comparable to that of Canadian society. In the group identified by Dr. Pedlar, which was part of the research, some people were subject to the new system and others came under the old system. The individuals in question were released between 1997 and 2007.
In fact, 79% of those subject to the new charter and who took part in the rehabilitation program have civilian employment. They are not unemployed. The other group is made up individuals with a disability that prevents them from working. There are a slew of financial programs available to assist these individuals given that they cannot work or earn a decent living, and to help them support themselves.
I do not think unemployment is higher under the new system.
