I think they may be a rank symbol, maybe an older issue as well?

Hi,
I'm afraid I disagree with HMPbadges I think they are standard slip on titles for a basic officer. Rank would be shown with either pips or bars.
The name of Canadian Penitentiaries Service was changed to Correction Service in 1979.
Hwyl,
Bantam

The explanation by Bantam is what I was led to believe as well.

Pick up this lot of badges from the same auction I purchased the previous slip on set from. Looks like these different symbols may depict rank after all
