The appellant appealed her convictions for criminal negligence causing death and bodily harm, and impaired driving causing death and bodily harm, arising from a fatal high-speed car crash.
She also appealed her sentence of four years' imprisonment and a 15-year driving prohibition.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no error in the issuance of search warrants for blood samples, concluding the verdict was reasonable, and holding that the failure to preserve a blood sample did not violate section 7 of the Charter.
The sentence was upheld as emphasizing general deterrence.
