Canada

Many people use the term “DUI,” but in Canada, the official charge under the Criminal Code is impaired driving. Understanding this distinction is crucial if you’re facing alcohol or drug-related driving allegations.

Impaired driving charges can lead to:

✔️ Heavy fines
✔️ Licence suspension
✔️ Criminal record
✔️ Possible jail time

Whether your case involves alcohol, cannabis, prescription medication, or refusal to provide a breath sample, the consequences can be serious and long-lasting.
