The prisoners, four of whom faced murder charges, used their tools to remove a heating grill and steel plate and win access to a brick exterior wall.
"Idle hands are the Devil's tools," said the Saskatchewan government report, referring to the fact that prisoners at the Regina Correctional Center had little to do in the unit, which was built in 1964 and housed prisoners awaiting court dates.
"They tend to gravitate toward doing whatever they can get away with."
The report team made 23 recommendations, all of which the Saskatchewan government accepted on Thursday. The government will spend C$87 million ($68 million) building a new center in Saskatoon for prisoners awaiting court dates and C$9.4 million to bolster security equipment in prisons.
The report said at least 87 prison workers had supervised the six prisoners' unit without detecting the escape preparations. Some guards had suspected something was being planned, but they did not interview the prisoners.
"It was shocking," said Saskatchewan Corrections Minister Darryl Hickie, a former police officer and prison worker.
