Day parole

Day parole is a form of release under Canadian law that permits prisoner participation in public activities during the day, and requires they return to their prison or halfway house nightly.[1] The Parole Board of Canada may waive this requirement, or choose to impose additional conditions. This is often preparatory for statutory release or full parole.

Eligibility

In Canada, a prisoner serving a sentence of two years or longer is eligible to apply for day parole six months prior to eligibility for full parole, or after six months (whichever is greater). Those serving life or indeterminate sentences are eligible to apply for day parole after three years, or three years before full parole eligibility (whichever is greater).[2]

gollark: I mean, P2P tunnels do kind of simplify it lots, but there's an art to getting channels in the right places.
gollark: It does have cool challenges, like efficiently routing channels around.
gollark: Wait, what's *that* showing?
