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.

Tony
