How We Can Help

Driving High - Police Checkpoint

These new laws (Bill C-46) set out specific limits for the amount of THC the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis that you can legally have in your blood. The problem is THC varies by individual circumstances how long it remains in ones blood stream.

Our Lawyers will challenge the amount of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the active psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, in your system and challenge how many nanograms per milliliters of blood is in your system.

Impaired driving by marijuana charges will require proof of impairment that may include standard sobriety tests or demands for drug recognition evaluations.

Evidence the Crown will try to use to prove a driving under the influence by drug charge:

  • Highway Traffic Law infractions
  • Weaving or driving slowly
  • Speeding
  • Indicators of being high such as slurred speech, bloodshot eyes, and fumbling
