      It’s just straight up illegal for medical professionals to report drug use in Canada. The government doesn’t want people to die because they were afraid to go to the hospital

      Nope. Always let your doctor know, medications you are taking could have extreme consequences when mixed with other drugs. They aren’t the police, and they’d be breaking the law themselves to report that shit. Unless it’s for a controlled substance, they have no duty or authorization to report that unless you explicitly give it to them. afaik, grain of salt and all that
