Drug Offences
Possession, trafficking, production and importing.
We defend charges under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act: possession (s. 4(1)), trafficking and possession for the purpose of trafficking (ss. 5(1) and 5(2)), production (s. 7), and importing and exporting.
These investigations often involve warrants, wiretaps, vehicle stops, and searches of homes and phones. Each step has to meet legal and constitutional requirements; evidence obtained unlawfully may be excluded.
- Challenging warrants and warrantless searches
- Whether the Crown can prove possession, knowledge and purpose
- The reliability of informants and surveillance
- Resolutions that avoid or reduce a criminal record where the facts allow
