It is a formal title, separate from rank.
It's akin to military jargon of there being a commanding officer or CO. Even though this can range from full colonel to say lieutenant it is separate from rank.

They just need to get a charter violation or failure to prove beyond a reasonable doubt and promotions for all.

"Commander" is not a title within the MCS.
We have:
Correctional officers,
Rehab officers
Rec. officers.
Corporals
Staff Sergeants (who can, depending on their role have specific secondary titles of wich "commander" isn't one)
Deputy Superintendents
Superintendents
As GreyGhost said, the media can't be bothered with accuracy...

Lol... and you've mixed up the toronto police with the ontario ministry if correctional services...
TSDC is a separate entity ftom the TPS.
We dont share the same structure, or nomenclature.
Walk into any Jail and ask to speak with "the commander" and they'll ask you... "what?"
Here are different words from the press briefing. Still clear as mud as they didn't use any of the official titles.
7 TPS officers, retired officer charged in police corruption, organized crime investigation
Seven Toronto police officers and a retired officer have been charged in an investigation into police corruption and organized crime that includes conspiracy to commit murder, shootings, and extortion.
toronto.citynews.ca
"The investigation began in June 2025 when they allege a conspiracy unfolded to murder a member of corrections management who was working at a Ontario Correctional Institute institution.
“Over a 36-hour period, a number of suspects attended this member’s home in York Region, we allege, for the purpose of murdering him,” said Deputy Chief Brian Hogan."

Thats not a thing...
There are "liasion" (police) officers that are utilized within some larger jails, but they dont have anything to do with the running of the jail.
They exist only because the jail generates so much incident wise it's easier to have an officer assigned than having to call one in every time there's an assault.
They can also act as a resource for us whenever we might need/want their input/advice.

OCI is a different facility than TSDC....

That was a direct quote from YRP Deputy Chief Ryan Hogan. The best and brightest I tell you. That's why we pay them the big bucks.
And it's not illegal to tell them to GFY, as they don't have a legal mandate (ICE Barbie saying so doesn't make it legal) to ask anyone they want for identification.
They dont need a legal mandate to ask. You can always refuse an request.
You can say GFY and wake up with a headache in a El Paso holding cell , or El Salvador , things are not normal enough to risk anything right now for ANYone .

Anyone can start a conversation and anyone has a right to walk away. They ask. Then they demand. Then they arrest. That's not the same thing.
Sure. And there's a process for that.
I vaguely recall numerous court orders being issued against the agency.
Sure there is. They aren't following it. You have stop and identify States. Then you have States that don't provide for that. It's not a Federal level thing, unless you mean a Constitutional Law issue. That's 4th Amendment; right against unreasonable search and seizure.
