The accused was arrested following a police response to a call about an intoxicated passenger in a cab.
A search incident to arrest revealed the accused was in possession of 111 grams of Ketamine.
The Crown alleged possession for the purpose of trafficking.
The accused conceded possession of the substance but contested the trafficking allegation.
The sole issue at trial was whether the Crown proved the accused possessed the Ketamine for trafficking purposes.
The Crown relied on expert evidence regarding the quantity being consistent with trafficking.
The defence argued the absence of other indicia of trafficking left open the reasonable possibility of personal use.
