In July 2023 the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete David Mylnikov after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Cannabis in a concentration above the WADA threshold.
Following notification the Athlete gave a promp admission, accepted the sanction proposed by CCES and signed a Waiver of Hearing. CCES accepted that the Athlete's use of Cannabis occurred out-of-competition in a context unrelated to sport performance.
Therefore CCES decides on 2 November 2023 to impose a 3 month period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on 11 October 2023.
