She was bound by a conditional sentence order at the time of the offence.
The Crown sought six to nine months imprisonment; the defence sought a conditional sentence of six months.
The court imposed four months imprisonment followed by twelve months probation with conditions including abstinence from controlled substances and participation in rehabilitative programs.
A ten-year firearms prohibition was also imposed.
The court balanced the serious nature of trafficking to children with Gladue factors reflecting the accused's history of abuse, neglect, and systemic disadvantage.
