[52] In Regina v. Tremblay, supra, a possession for purposes case, involved a case of musical chairs with respect to hotel rooms. The oral exculpatory evidence of the accused was rejected. The drugs were found in a room recently vacated by the accused for another room. And then upon arrest in that other room, occupied by the accused, drug paraphernalia and a gun were located. Other person or persons had stayed or visited. The connections of the accused to the two rooms resulted in a finding of his exclusive control of them, resulting in conviction.
