Ontario Court of Appeal

Summary:
Parker suffered from a very severe form of epilepsy since childhood. For close to 40 years he experienced frequent, serious and potentially life-threatening seizures. Surgery for the problem was a failure and conventional medication only moderately successful. He found that by smoking marijuana he could substantially reduce the incidence of seizures. Since he had no legal source of marijuana, he grew his own. On two occasions, the police searched his home and seized the marijuana. He was first charged with cultivating marijuana under the Narcotic Control Act. By the time of the second investigation, that Act had been repealed and he was charged with possession of marijuana under the new Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Parker alleged that the prohibition on the cultivation and possession of marijuana in the two statutes was unconstitutional. Specifically, Parker claimed that the legislation infringed his rights as guaranteed by s. 7 of the Charter because he faced the threat of imprisonment in order to keep his health.
The Ontario Court (General Division) concluded that Parker required marijuana to control his epilepsy and that the prohibition against marijuana infringed Parker's rights under s. 7 of the Charter. The trial judge stayed the cultivation and possession charges against Parker. Further, the trial judge read into the legislation an exemption for persons possessing or cultivating marijuana for their "personal medically approved use". The Crown appealed, arguing that the trial judge made a factual error in finding that Parker required marijuana for medical purposes. The Crown also argued that the legislation was valid and that there were legal means by which Parker could obtain marijuana. The Crown argued, inter alia, that Parker could have applied for a special exemption from the Minister of Health under s. 56 of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Further, the Crown argued that the remedy granted by the trial judge was wrong and he should not have, in effect, amended the legislation, which was a matter for Parliament.
The Ontario Court of Appeal held that the trial judge was right in finding that Parker needed marijuana to control the symptoms of his epilepsy. The court held that the prohibition on the cultivation and possession of marijuana was unconstitutional. Forcing Parker to choose between his health and imprisonment violated his right to liberty and security of the person and those violations did not accord with the principles of fundamental justice. The court held that the possibility of an exemption under s. 56 of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act dependent upon the unfettered and unstructured discretion of the Minister of Health was not consistent with the principles of fundamental justice. Accordingly, the court upheld the trial judge's decision to stay the charges against Parker. The court, however, disagreed with the remedy of reading in a medical use exemption. Rather, the court declared the prohibition on the possession of marijuana in the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act to be of no force and effect, but suspended the declaration of invalidity for a year. Parker, however, was entitled to a personal exemption from the possession offence under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act for possessing marijuana for his medical needs. Since the Narcotic Control Act had already been repealed by Parliament, the court found it unnecessary to hold it unconstitutional. If necessary, the court would have found that Parker was entitled to a personal exemption from the cultivation offence for his medical needs.
