Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is a felony offense in Canada, and you may be denied entry at the border. If you have a legitimate reason to travel to Canada, such as a business meeting, you can apply for a Canadian temporary resident permit (TRP). If you travel to Canada frequently, you can petition for criminal rehabilitation to become permanently admissible into the country. Canadians crossing the border into the US typically won't be stopped because of a single DUI. If you have other convictions on your record, you can request a waiver of inadmissibility.
