I suspect that you very well may have an issue when returning to Canada, since a DUI is now considered a serious crime in Canada (per Bill C-46). Technically, you are now inadmissible to Canada.

Hi,

DUI is a serious offense if it is an prosecuted as indictable offense because the maximum jail time is 10 years. If it is prosecuted as a summary offense it is not a serious offense as the jail time is a maximum of 2 years.

Hi,
I must correct my last response regarding the DUI impact. Even summary prosecutions are deemed to be indictable after 2018 so if he is convicted he may be inadmissible, but I do not think before conviction he will be inadmissible.

What if the offence took place before 2018 but the conviction is entered in 2022? I
