Drug offences in Toronto and throughout Canada are outlined in the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA). There are four primary types:

1. Possession of a Controlled Substance
2. Possession of a Controlled Substance for the Purpose of Trafficking
3. Trafficking in a Controlled Substance
4. Importing a Controlled Substance

Drug charges often result from police search warrants at homes, apartments, condominiums, storage units, offices, and motor vehicles. They can also result from the search of an individual incidental to being arrested on an unrelated charge. The techniques of drug investigation also involve police wiretapping, cell phone/vehicle tracking, and obtaining production of certain documents and records (production orders). The police need to meet strict legal requirements to obtain warrants and production orders.
