The BAC limit in Canada is 80. So unless there were other signs for impairment that were introduced as evidence in the case the conviction will be deemed not equivalent to a DUI in Canada and therefore still admissible.

DUI is very serious I hope your friend has learned from his mistake.

The federal court has a case listed for an Indian man who failed to disclose arrests, dismissed charges and a conviction that was overturned on appeal. The man has no criminal record and suffice to say a clear PCC, but nevertheless the Canadian immigration forms ask for arrests and charges and even overturned convictions, and this was on a TRV application not a PR.

The best course of action for the OP is to get a legal opinion from an immigration lawyer about admissibility and include that in his application.
