Certainly a Russian or maybe a Hermanns. Definitely NOT a Redfoot for northern Ontario with only 4 x 1.5 feet to deal with. Aside from the fact that Redfoots get far too large for that enclosure the heating and humidity requirements would be daunting to say the least.

I would definitely look into a Russian Tortoise. They remain small, don't need high temperatures or high humidity. And they have great little personalities and are in constant motion.
