British Columbia Corrections Service

The British Columbia Corrections Service (BCCS), known most commonly as BC Corrections, is the official correctional service of the Canadian province of British Columbia, answerable to the Solicitor General of British Columbia.

BC Corrections operates all prisons in the province except for federal prisons operated by the Corrections Canada. While guards and all other correctional staff are employed by Corrections BC, the separate British Columbia Sheriff Service (BCSS) is responsible for the transportation of prisoners between prisons and other facilities, while all jails and pretrial remand centres in the province are operated by county-level correctional departments or similar, such as the North Fraser County Department of Corrections (NFCDC) in North Fraser County.
