The reason I've been holding off applying for a Record Suspension is that my conviction was for hashish, which technically isn't cannabis if the government wants to split hairs over it. Does anyone know if the Canadian government is pardoning people with hashish possession convictions? I can't find any information on this.
Two grams of hash in 1990 has haunted me my entire adult life. 29 years later and that little conviction still rears its ugly head every time I apply for a job or need some type of security check. It's ridiculous.
I applied for a pardon a few years back, and after dropping the $631 dollar application fee and paying the cops for a record check, they denied me over a parking ticket in 2009, which they said indicated a "clear disregard for the laws of Canada". The whole thing has been equal parts horror show and a bad joke.
At any rate, does anyone know if possession of hash excludes me from the Record Suspension program?
