I know Ontario has issued guidelines on bail. I think they were specific to the COVID context.

I have not done, and I don't believe our unit has done, a comprehensive search of every jurisdiction.

I can point you to British Columbia and, at the federal level, the Public Prosecution Service of Canada Deskbook, which provides information on bail hearings.
