Anyone with a criminal record, including a drunk driving conviction, may be barred from entering Canada. Any person whose conviction is more than 10-years old may be deemed rehabilitated according to Canadian authorities.

Reportedly the ban applies whether you arrive by air, sea or land. You can download the application for rehabilitation at www.detroit.gc.ca. Scroll down to “Visa and Immigration” click on “criminal and other inadmissibilities.”

Processing costs at least $200 and could go up to $800 and is non-refundable regardless of outcome.
