What if someone didn’t really want to have sex but was really drunk and might have said yes?

In Canada, people who are drunk or high can’t consent to sex, even if they say yes. If this has happened, it may be considered sexual assault. It’s important to see a health care provider as soon as possible to manage risks like STI, injury and, if applicable, pregnancy. It might also be helpful to speak with a counselor or call/text One Line for sexual violence at 1-866-403-8000 talk about the experience.
