On June 17, 2024, the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) held a Change of Command Ceremony in the Atlantic Region. This occasion marked the change in command from the outgoing Regional Deputy Commissioner (RDC), Jay Pyke, to the incoming RDC, Johanne Charest.
The ceremony reinforces the responsibility of leadership in the role of Regional Deputy Commissioner. It represents the symbolic passing of responsibility, authority, and accountability from one correctional leader to another.
This ceremony is an important tradition for CSC. It reaffirms the incoming leader's pledge to support CSC's mission and contribute to the safety and security of the public, employees, and offenders.
CSC is proud of the dedicated staff members in the Atlantic Region who work tirelessly every day to make a difference in the lives of offenders. Their professionalism and commitment contributes to public safety for Canadians.
