It's Quebec a lot looser on pot? I heard in Quebec City people will smoke right out in the open.

He had 30 grams is the problem.
Get a legal rep. You may end up with a criminal record without one and close a lot of doors on yourself. |
another hero cop saving the day...
good luck. |
Ah shit, Waterloo cops are dicks. They're overzealous rent-a-cops who get their highs off harassing university students. This part sucks, but get a lawyer. The second they're faced with a lawyer defending you, they'll lighten up really fast.

Get a lawyer and demand a jury trial. Not sure if it's still the case but I heard they throw out cases that want a jury since it's hard to find that many people who have never smoked pot lol.
I have been told that a Canadian jury can overturn a law if they feel it is unjust. |
I've been pinched with weed a few times as a youth. Any legal aid lawyer can get this tossed out. One of my friend's places got raided and he got caught with 10 pounds and only got 6 months. He was out in 2. The courts are so backed up, they don't have time for these Micky Mouse cases.

you should only get simple possesion.

30+ grams? you'd be fucked in vancouver..

Get legal aid, its free and the lawyer will tell you right away he can get this taken care of. Your charge will either be dropped or reduced to some kind of stupid fine. Your buddy should hit up legal aid right now, mosy likely his charge will be dropped to possesion, especially if he pleads guilty.
I wouldn't reccomend either of you plead guilty or cut a deal right now. Your legal aid will know how the system works and will probably get your charge thrown out and most likely your buddy won't be much trouble either. I know people busted with alot more bud than what you guys had and faced alot stiffer charges and pretty much everyone has walked. I know in B.C. most cops are pretty mellow about weed but you can always get an asshole cop who wants to break someone's balls. What the cops don't realize is the courts could give a fuck about these charges and don't have the time to care about a guy with an ounce of weed. Bottom line get legal aid and you should be fine. |
Just so you guys know, legal aid is not something you just given to you in Canada. You have to qualify for it. In other words, you have to make less than X amount (it's not very much) and/or not be a dependant on your parents who can afford to pay.

The guy that called the police was on the news tho.. talking about how suspicious he looked leaving the convenience store.. He was just a impatient driver in a rush.. The girl was raped in the area not the store. They had lots of proof he had nothing to do with the rape. The victims didn't point him out of pictures, they tested his blood/dna/sperm didn't match. and he had witnesses as to where he was. But he still had to go through all the bullshit of a real trial. I spent time with him for a year during his house arrest but I ended up cutting him off and so I don't know where everything ended up. Apparently the police and crown (??) were determined to pin him with all of the charges and look like heros. Whether it was him or not. |

No but I mean after he was acquited... This type of story needs to hit the news.. This makes the criminal justice system look criminal indeed and Soviet inspired... In what country did that happen btw? |
well i can afford a lawyer if it means paying $1k or something like that - i really rather wouldn't though, if i can just get it to trial im confident that the crown would withdraw the charges citing the lack of evidence, so i just need pretty much anyone that can practice law

I can't find him on Facebook or anything so I haven't been able to find out how it ended. I really hope it didn't end with him killing himself or being charged for anything. This was in Canada. |
fuck all cops
