Yup, steroids are definitely illegal to buy, sell, or try to buy.
We're just lucky that most cops see it as a less offence than possessing marijuana and won't drag you through the muds like the U.S. Feds.

True but the risk of something getting bad is still there. If they want to bust someone for importing 10 vials of sust from india, they are totally allowed to. But if someone is breaking a law, it is wise to know exactly what law they are breaking and what kind of punishment they can get.
Now if anyone can clarify exactly what summary conviction and indictable means (with example would be super). That is what actually shows you what the max sentence is for the crime.

Steroid offenses for mere possession are going to be summary, meaning they'll get quickly resolved in court and the punishment will be more or less trivial. For manufacture or distributing/trafficking, the offenses are hybrid, meaning it is the prosecutor's discretion to push for it to be treated as a summary offense or an indictable one. The defendant's prior criminal background (or lack thereof) would have some influence on that decision, depending on what he was found to be involved in.
Speaking of all of this, has anyone heard word one about what happened in court to Illusion or xxx? I'd presume Illusion has been convicted and sentenced already, and that xxx trial is ongoing.

Now if anyone can clarify exactly what summary conviction and indictable means (with example would be super). That is what actually shows you what the max sentence is for the crime.
In more basic terms Indictable = serious (sexual assault). Summary= minor (causing a disturbance).
It sounds like steroid convictions are hybrid offences, which mean the court/DA has the option on which level to charge you.
It's been a while since I looked at my public law texts but I think summary convictions carry a max punishment of $2000 and/or six months in jail, unless otherwise defined.
The wait times for pardon eligibility are different as well. I think it's 3 years for summary and maybe 5 for indictable.
As was said before about possession. If you happen to be really lucky and just happen to stumble across a personal amount of Sched. IV drugs then there's no offence committed by possessing them.
The onus would be on them to prove you bought them.

Yes, the above info is correct.
But therin lies the problem. If LE puts someone under investigation for importing or trafficking steroids, let's say for 1 year. They put a few guys on the job. So in 1 year the investigation sets them back maybe 100k - 250k. They will not be going after a summary conviction. It's not logically feasible to spend that much money for such a small charge/sentence. They'd go after everything possible like they did to illusion to justify the expense of the investigation.
I belive they'd only go after a summary conviction if they got "lucky" and happened upon a pack and did a controlled delivery or somone spilled the beans and gave them a gift. Other than that, I believe if they start an investigation, they are going after an indictement. It's only logical.
This is my opinion only.

I totally agree with the misallocation of resources regarding a summary conviction involving steroids, which is why I don't think they'd risk it unless they were fairly certain that the person they're investigating is a fairly good size source.
I think the only reason we see guys go down who aren't major street level dealers is when a) they get busted selling recs, b) somebody rolls.
This is why "cash in the mail" is so dangerous; and I guess western union could be dangerous as well if they know where it's sent to. I know people say e-gold wasn't safe, but I miss those days. It takes all of a few minutes to transfer funds through 10 different accounts and then organize a withdrawl.
Nobody should know a sources name or address; ever. It may lead to a few scams but it keeps everyone safer.

Oh before I forget. While I was doing research on all this stuff, I came across some info I found rather interesting. It pertained to selling information about how to make drugs or something along those lines. It seems that by selling that information you are doing something illegal. I can't find that info again but if someone does, can you please post it in this thread.

Summary conviction 3 year wait period before you can start to apply for a pardon. Indictable 5 years. ++ The year or so that it takes to process your application. So you could be waiting 6 to 7 years before you have a clean record..which is a long time if you need clean record for a job.
Hopefully you will get a conditional discharge. lol where you don't need a pardon it's off your record in 3 years for free.

I don't see where it says they are illegal to buy.
Copying from the Act:
(2) No person shall seek or obtain
(a) a substance included in Schedule I, II, III or IV, or
(b) an authorization to obtain a substance included in Schedule I, II, III or IV
from a practitioner, unless the person discloses to the practitioner particulars relating to the acquisition by the person of every substance in those Schedules, and of every authorization to obtain such substances, from any other practitioner within the preceding thirty days.
The section refers to acquiring from a "practitioner". Defined as: "practitioner" means a person who is registered and entitled under the laws of a province to practise in that province the profession of medicine, dentistry or veterinary medicine, and includes any other person or class of persons prescribed as a practitioner;
So I don't see an offence for buying in and of itself, unless its from a Doctor or Vet and you fail to disclose prior authorizations within the past 30 days.

If anyone can find the info on ancillaries like nolva, clomid etc and hgh, it would make this thread complete. I'm looking but I can't find anything.
Tamoxifen clomifene would be listed as a obtaining a prescription medication without valid prescription; I'll dig through my criminal code and see what I can find.
edit: wtf. Methandrostenolone (dbol) isn't listed as one of the 43 listed anabolics.

I can't seem to find any information of hgh. It should be under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, if any, but its not on any schedule I can find to the act.
Steroid offenses for mere possession are going to be summary, meaning they'll get quickly resolved in court and the punishment will be more or less trivial. For manufacture or distributing/trafficking, the offenses are hybrid, meaning it is the prosecutor's discretion to push for it to be treated as a summary offense or an indictable one. The defendant's prior criminal background (or lack thereof) would have some influence on that decision, depending on what he was found to be involved in.
Speaking of all of this, has anyone heard word one about what happened in court to Illusion or Teragon? I'd presume Illusion has been convicted and sentenced already, and that Teragon's trial is ongoing.
I bet it go's over a year or almost two years,there are many people that went down Illusion and HA, the RCMP and crown would try to say there all working together.

I don't think there's a set number. I know the states count each pill or mL as 1 dose, so a bottle of anabol would be 1000 doses of anabolic steroids, but so would 1000 amps of primo.
Obviously there's a huge price, quantity, and intent difference between the two.
I'm almost positive that the Crown would have to prove intent to distribute, so if you have more than a couple cycles worth on hand you should be fine.
If you get caught receiving a pack then you're still committing an offence, no matter how much it is.

I've read through this thread and the other one about legalities of steroids. I have a bit of experience, so from what I know and was told that it is illegal to Obtain them in anyway. I am pretty sure that is close to how the law is stated too. For the people out there that say they will just go after you if you are dealing rec's too sorry but you are wrong. Either they get tipped off or they think they have a huge deal on there hands. Now some advice for anyone that gets caught get your lawyer to take the matter to higher court, superior court I think it is. Like I said I have some experience in this so if anyone has questions I will try and answer.

http://www.canadabodybuilding.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1282
If the guy goes scott free, just ask your lawyer to refer to that case and ask for the same type of punishment. It would be more than fair no? Not even house arrest would be fair if the cop goes scott free as he was on duty and had to not take steroids to uphold the law. In other words he was a law enforcer breaking the law. He should be punished much more severely than a normal citizen. If he gets nothing, then wouldn't it be more than fair for your lawyer to use that case as an example?

Musulphreak - the officer only did something illegal to his work, he was only caught using from what I know. As everyone knows it is peferctly legal to use. But if he does get off then any lawyer should refer to his case. I think he won't get much of anything for it anyways but it still can be refered to and help out.
Mr Ontario - there is alot better chance of doing time in lower level court. It will all depend on the judge.

I've asked many cops about this topic and every one of them told me the same thing. Its legal to have and use but you can not sell without getting a trafficking charge.
From the Canadian Department of Defense regarding steroids and military:
http://www.dnd.ca/health/services/health_promotion/engraph/factsheet_anabolicSteroid_e.asp
Are anabolic steroids illegal? In Canada, anabolic steroids and their derivatives are considered "Controlled Substances" and as such it is illegal to manufacture, import, export or sell these substances. Canadian Forces members are not exempt from this legislation and this is further reiterated in the Canadian Forces Drug Control Program as outlined in CFAO 19-21. Despite all of the above, using anabolic steroids is not illegal.

Been a while since I've been here, life's tough n' everything.
Anyways, as to the question of how much constitutes as posession for purposes of trafficking, the answer is that it is a question of law. What that means in legal termonology, is that such a question would have to be brought to court and answered on a case-by-case basis. Thus, there is no set definition either in codified statute law, case law or common law. Theoretically possession of a 1mg pill could be considered enough for trafficking, though I assure you no court would convict based on this.
Though, the focus of a trafficking charge is to show before the court that there was reasonable grounds to believe the individual intended to traffick the substance or that there was prima facie evidence of trafficking (caught them in the act.)
As far as the link provided by MP is concerned, the article deals not with a violation of law per se, but employment standards set out in the Police Services Act. He will not see criminal charges (well, the stalking would apply) though he would in all probability be fired, or if the PRP is nice enough, offer him the opportunity to resign.
And to add my affirmation(as I've done so before) use of Anabolic Steroids is not an offence. Any officer that states otherwise would be suggested to brush up on his knowledge of the Controlled Drugs and Substances act. However, an interesting thing to note that previously (to my knowledge) Anabolic Steroids were once classified as Schedule III substances prior to the current iteration of the CDSA.
Ironically, it would seem that politicians actually somewhat acknowledge that AS are not as dangerous as certain backward-politicians of our southern neighbours would lead people to believe.

Grunt76
05-05-2008, 01:54 PM
I don't see where it says they are illegal to buy.
Copying from the Act:
(2) No person shall seek or obtain
(a) a substance included in Schedule I, II, III or IV, or
(b) an authorization to obtain a substance included in Schedule I, II, III or IV
from a practitioner, unless the person discloses to the practitioner particulars relating to the acquisition by the person of every substance in those Schedules, and of every authorization to obtain such substances, from any other practitioner within the preceding thirty days.
The section refers to acquiring from a "practitioner". Defined as: "practitioner" means a person who is registered and entitled under the laws of a province to practise in that province the profession of medicine, dentistry or veterinary medicine, and includes any other person or class of persons prescribed as a practitioner;
So I don't see an offence for buying in and of itself, unless its from a Doctor or Vet and you fail to disclose prior authorizations within the past 30 days.
I want to come back to this. It says, to seek to obtain [the stuff or authorization to obtain it] from a practicioner.
Is there another paragraph that talks of attempting to obtain from other ways?
MuSuLPhReAk
10-05-2008, 08:01 PM
Read the charges. http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/nb/news/Dec2107_150557.html
Note: there is a difference between trafficking steroids and FDA drug (read GH, cialis, viagra, etc..) and CONSPIRACY to traffic.
Also the meaning of trafficking is:
traffic - buying and selling; especially illicit trade
Note the word buying.
Need any more proof that it's all illegal? Be careful in what you all do. Nothing is safe on the net. Everything leaves a trail. And LE has all the time in the world to investigate and watch. I don't know what else you guys need to understand that anyone doing anything illegal has a very big chance to get caught. You can quote me on that.

No. Attempting to obtain, or obtaining a schedule IV drug from another "source" is not an offence. I'd like to stress that there is no CDSA offence for "buying" any controlled substance. Buying an illicit drug predicates posession, hence why posession is the offence. When it comes to buying/selling there is only possession/trafficking as a charge.
Take a look at the list of OJB charges MP posted. You'll see everything is trafficking/conspiracy to commit pertaining to AAS.

As it's been said earlier, AAS are in a grey area in that you cannot buy or sell them, but if you happen to find them, or they magically appear you're free to take them.
If LE wants to prove that you bought them I'm sure they can, luckily it's not worth their time for personal users.

You may import into Canada, up to a three month supply of prescription medicine for personal use, or for an immediate family member you are travelling with. You must also bring the drug over the border in hospital or pharmacy dispensed packaging. In addition, you must have a copy of the original prescription and make sure both generic and brand names of the drug are included (to avoid hassle).
Normally, simple posession isn't whats scrutinized, but the fact that you are technically importing a controlled substance. Make sure yoy have a copy of the script or you can potentially face ramifications at the airport. Also, make sure to declare it as personal use.
Also, for further follow-up, consider contacting your local police department/MP for consultation.

If trafficking is to buy or sell then is there anything stopping someone from giving the stuff away? Something to think about.

It would appear after looking at the interpretation section that you are correct. As usual they have redefined the meanings of the words as they apply to the Controlled Substances Act. They have even redefined the word sell to include giving away for nothing. What a bunch of cock smokers. They do this intentionally so the average person can't understand the law. If you read these Acts assuming that words have their common meanings you will be lost.
“sell”
« vente »
“sell” includes offer for sale, expose for sale, have in possession for sale and distribute, whether or not the distribution is made for consideration

To get into the topic would take about 10 pages of explanation and I haven't looked into the fine details regarding common law and AAS. I think I may have brought this topic up on this forum or another body building forum before and there was no interest. So I'm not going to bother trying to convince everyone but there is information out there.

Well put it this way, it's a criminal offence to disturb oyster beds or communicate in public for the purposes of prostitution. The regulation of behaviour does not require a victim, why would it, or should it? The premise is that we've all agreed to a social contract, and if we break that contract with behaviour that doesn't conform to the best interests of society, we agree to the sanctions.

BLP - Are you aware the law on the importation and manufacture of Schedule IV drugs was changed as of Aug 4 and that these are now considered "Serious Crimes" while simple possession or use has not changed, Customs and the Police are now being told by the legislation that "This is a serious crime" which mean that they will actively prosecute and seek incarceration rather than simply plead it out and make it go away.
While this change is less than a week old, everyone need to be aware that the LAW HAS CHANGED in Canada.

deterrence and denunciation. A sentence of 20 months, in a provincial correctional institution is
appropriate.

So the bottom line is, Actually having steroids (In Canada) is perfectly legal for personal use. And cops won't come after you if you don't sign packages, and only order typical personal use sizes (if overseas) or buy personal sizes locally. (Yet doing so you are breaking the law). But the fact is that this break in law is so small to their perspective and so expensive for them to pursue that it's almost pointless.
- BUT, when your ordering (or locally buying) big ammounts of injects, orals, whatever as long as schedule IV, they will nab you for it regardless eventually.
But regardless there's still a chance to be caught, but don't worry, were in Canada, having a personal ammount of test doesn't mean big jail-time like our buddies to the south.
Regardless, personally, I don't see it a big deal for the personal importation of steroids for personal use and neither should our police or so called law enforcers see.

(My curiosity is specifically towards raws/orals)

50k out of steroid mmmmm very shady ,, that guy was into harder drugs , they did not find it , n hold a grasp of what they could ,,, something fishy ,, maybe im delusional i dont see that kinda money in such micro community , too many
players , way too diluted , edmonton have a much greater economy compare to poor montreal tho
this guy declare bankruptcy meaning he had asset , that probably make no sense with personal accounting , probably a non bodybuilder , since bodybuilder on gh very easy to spend black market income ,
get caught importation at is work under is name , that very stupid , that run for trouble
other case , child pornography, yikes ,,
but your right what was grey area now turn borderline ,
but at same time our own solider specially in edmonton are far way from natural
it will turn out criminal soon , it suck

(My curiosity is specifically towards raws/orals)I recently had 4 vials of Hcg returned to sender because it was more than a 3 month supply. The seller re-shipped them, 2 in each parcel, and I received all of them.

..That is actually hilarious. Even though I believe HCG isnt in the same class as AAS. Regardless, thanks brother.

As it's been said earlier, AAS are in a grey area in that you cannot buy or sell them, but if you happen to find them, or they magically appear you're free to take them.
If LE wants to prove that you bought them I'm sure they can, luckily it's not worth their time for personal users.

Any idea if HMG is treated the same as HCG?

I have no clue. I would guess if it's in the same class of drugs as the HCG, it would follow the same guideline.

Hi guys, first timer here
Read quote a bit and see myself taking HGH. There is a Canadian website that ships domestically to your place, but you send money via western union out of country. If I order 100iu, can I face any penalty for buying it? How about possession? Thanks a lot!
Not sure if pistig the site is allowed, but if given the green lgt I will share:

HGH isn't listed in schedule IV. Is it illegal to order it through the net? (Say - if the Canadian Customs seizes a package of 100-200 iu - what the consequences would be?)
Any update?

I am confused. If it is illegal to posses more than what you need or enough to distribute, how then is it legal for companies in Canada to sell and distribute steroids, say Testosterone? These companies posses more than they need for their own use so how do they distribute the product legally and not be arrested?
This is very confusing to me. So it would be illegal to set up and manufacture and refine Testosterone and sell it to people that need it for bodybuilding or people with low testosterone levels. How is this done?
