(a) perform community service, subject to any reasonable conditions that may be specified in the order;


(a.1) if the offence results, directly or indirectly, in a financial benefit under this Act, or a contribution for which a receipt referred to in subsection 127(3) of the

(b) compensate any other person who has suffered damages as a result of the commission of the offence;
