// Definition
The systemic issue in Canada where medical cannabis patients registered under the MMAR/ACMPR are flagged in the CPIC (Canadian Police Information Centre) system after any police interaction, leading to repeated traffic stops, searches, and harassment despite holding valid medical licenses.
// From the Episode
Johnny B describes two incidents of being pulled over by RCMP drug cops who ran his plates and used 'it smells like weed' as pretext to search his vehicle. Officers never asked about impairment or consumption. Chimera clarifies that Health Canada records are separate from CPIC - the flag comes from prior police interactions, not the medical program itself. Johnny was detained, car searched, and given a false ticket.
