The Criminal Code contains other powers that authorize peace officers to seize firearms if they are concerned about the safety of someone in a home. This can be done in the context of an investigation or when someone is released temporarily from custody after a bail hearing. There is also another provision in section 111 of the Criminal Code that allows a police officer to submit a request to the court if he or she is concerned about someone's safety. This leads to a temporary prohibition. It does not only apply in cases where people are found guilty at the very end of the process. There are in fact certain preventive measures in the Criminal Code.
