Yes. I think you are touching on the important point. When a person promises in writing to keep the peace, to stay away from a specific area and to obey the law, we are theoretically shielded from risk.
However, we have a problem. Obviously, not all offenders pose the same risk. However, once the risk has been assessed, no one is tasked with checking the file of John Doe or Jane Doe to ensure that their release conditions are being met. In Quebec, no unit is responsible for doing this kind of work. Such monitoring would strengthen the credibility of the system. Other criminals would then know that their commitments would not be based solely on their honour, but that they would actually be monitored.
