Default Going on a university trip to Canada for 10 days with cannabis caution??

Hi all
I am going to Canada with a group as part of my geography degree for 10 days to study etc, but last December I was given a cannabis warning/street caution for posession of two very small plants which I was looking after for a friend (true!). Will I be able to get an eta/be let in to Canada? Cautions seem to be a very grey legal area when it comes to entering and I have not been able to find any useful information about it, so was hoping someone with a similar experience may be able to help. I am in the process of requesting a copy of information about myself on police record from them.
Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't be losing any sleep over it. If asked disclose it.

Do you fancy looking after a couple of poppy fields for me or taking a 2kg package of baking soda to my auntie who lives in Texas?

So that's what happens to the stuff you confiscate at the border
