Hi Steph I fly in Canada. You need to speak to a medical examiner (or Transport Canada) for the final answer, However, here is my take on it: If you had an IFR rating - no - you couldn't fly at night - your licence is endorsed daylight only. And you need the two way radio in controlled airports because you would not be able to read light signals. IFR rating? That's a difficult question. Can you differentiate between 2 reds/2 whites and 4 reds? You need Transport to answer this one.
