This is the best summary I could come up with:

The Correctional Service Canada (CSC) confirmed in a statement Tuesday that Pickton was the victim of a "major assault" at the maximum-security Port-Cartier Institution.

Pickton was taken to a hospital for treatment and the assailant is in solitary confinement according to the Quebec provincial police, the  Sûreté du Québec  (SQ), which is investigating.

He said Pickton was undergoing surgery shortly before 10:30 a.m. PT and it will take a few weeks before the SQ transfers the case to the Director of Criminal and Penal Prosecutions (DCPC) to press charges.

The incident at the Port-Cartier Institution, located around 850 kilometres northeast of Montreal, did not involve staff and "appropriate actions have been taken" with regard to the assailant, the CSC said in an earlier statement.

The remains or DNA of 33 women, many of whom were Indigenous, were found on Pickton's pig farm in Port Coquitlam, about 25 kilometres east of downtown Vancouver.

In an interview with Radio-Canda's Tout un matin Tuesday, federal Public Security Minister Dominic LeBlanc said an internal investigation will be carried out at the Port-Cartier prison to shed light on the circumstances of the attack.
