To further answer the questions, Rob, I suppose one always has a choice. You don't *have* to prove anything or provide samples, but if you don't, then the consequence of that is that you lose your employment or you are not hired.
I've never worked in a place where employees were unionized, but I'm guessing that might affect things.

Why should anyone have to 'prove' that they did not use illegal drugs in the past (whatever time they show up for)?

I had to list all medications, prescription and OTC taken in the last 10 days.

Why should anyone have
to provide a sample of anything so someone (or thing in the case of a government body) can use it against them?

To answer your question,
