There are examples of community courts in pilot projects in Calgary like the drug courts, where there is co-operation between the crown and defence. There is court support around developing strategic planning and there are options to use indigenous-based restorative practices.
It still is within the court system, but the court system has a more holistic process in involving service providers, crown prosecutors, and defence counsel. They have a mandate to come up with a strategic plan to have the community come together to work with supporters on both sides—the victims and the offenders—to a resolution, with the option of going back to court.
