Hey that could mean most any of us at one time or another...The Federal Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Canada announced that he signed into law last Friday, effective March 1st 2012, a new program for the border crossing issues involving minor misdemeanours.
This involves particularly, but not solely,DUI�s. These laws have now been relaxed making entry to Canada much easier with a one time minor offense.
He said that anyone who is a single, one time offender of any misdemeanour including DUI, bar fights, assault, bad checks, etc. and who did not serve more than 6 months in jail will now be automatically allowed into Canada and not turned back with NO FEES required and they have also made the rehabilitation process much simpler, quicker and easy to fill out now too. Apparently you may be able to cross even w/o the permit and be given papers for the permit when U cross. Great news for the groups wanting to get back together and head to good ole Canada again!
