There's been quite a few cases actually.

a report by the Canadian Police Association revealed that between 1998 and 2003, 66 people have been killed by convicts out on early release
I don't think that has much meaning. The link to the original report is dead, and the only references are that Wiki site, and Calgarypuck.

66 people killed by people previously convicted of what? Drug offences, vandalism, theft?

Nowhere does it say that they had been previously convicted of murder, and had been given a "real" life sentence wouldn't have gone on to murder more people. If the conviction was for something else, then it doesn't seem wholly relevant. What are the numbers of convicted murderers in Canada going out and killing again?
