Bill C-46, passed in June 2018, established new federal laws and penalties around driving under the influence of cannabis and other drugs. Three new offences have been created in the Criminal Code of Canada: • Driving with 2 nanograms (ng) but less than 5 ng of THC per millilitre (ml) of blood. • Driving with 5 ng or more of THC per ml of blood. • Driving with a combination of 50 milligrams (mg) of alcohol (or more) plus 2.5 ng or more of THC per 1 ml of blood. Along with THC, these offences apply for any detectable levels of other impairing drugs, including cocaine, methamphetamine, LSD, ketamine and others.
