Restricting access to geographical areas is a common policing practice throughout North America
The Red Zone allows individuals a chance forrehabilitation and recovery by removing themfrom an environment where they haveoffended previously.
This condition is agreed-upon by lawenforcement, the court, and the offendingindividual to facilitate their release back intothe community.
The Canadian Criminal Code supports theapplication of geographical restrictionsthrough periods of recognizance to mitigatethe potential for re-offending.
