Drug-impaired driving has been a criminal offence for many decades. What is new are the offences relating to blood-drug concentration limits for cannabis and the cannabis/alcohol combination.
Part 1 of Bill C-46 introduced a number of amendments to the Criminal Code in response to the legalization of cannabis in Canada. Part 2 of Bill C-46 replaced all the old driving provisions of the Criminal Code with an entirely new scheme. As a result, sections 249-261 of the Criminal Code have been repealed.
