Restorative justice can be defined as a justice-related theory that is concerned with repairing harm caused or revealed by criminal behavior (Barsh 2005: 359). Over the years, restorative justice has been seen as an effective way to address the social and cultural issues of Aboriginal people. For this reason, restorative justice is used in many local communities in an attempt to correct criminal behavior. This concept is seen as a conceptualization of justice that in most cases is congruent with the cultural and community values ​​of Aboriginal peoples. There is a growing body of evidence to suggest that there are a number of challenges facing the effective implementation of restorative justice among Aboriginal peoples. Bopp and Bopp (2007: 45) argue that the tendency to make use of uniform strategies in restorative justice loses values ​​and often overlooks the heterogeneity of Native identities and experiences. This means it is important to recognize the differences between Aboriginal people. It is evident that the use of the retributive justice model has been used in many correctional institutions in Canada.
