Correctional Officers - Who are They

In these short videos put together by MGEU, officers explain some of the misconceptions about the work they do, some of the hazards of the job, officers explain how it takes compassion to do what they do, and how doing the job means being a first responder to every type of situation.

Annual Reports

Our Sponsors

The Corrections Museum of Manitoba operates throughout Manitoba and is located on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Anishininiwak, Ininiwak, Nehethowuk, Dakota, Dene, and Metis people.  We are primarily located on Treaty 1 Territory and the homeland of the Metis Nation. Our work extends throughout Treaties 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 10. We acknowledge that Winnipeg’s water is sourced from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation. We respect the Treaties made on these territories. We dedicate ourselves to moving forward with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration to make Manitoba an inclusive and accessible place for everyone who lives here.
