What factors contribute to the difficulties faced by the CJIB in recovering compensation from convicted offenders, and what are the long-term implications for victims?

The significant shortfall in repayments highlights the challenges in recovering funds from offenders, many of whom are incarcerated or lack the means to pay.

This persistent issue underscores the financial burden placed on the government.
