The Star (OAKVILLE, ONTARIO)
Ontario isn’t tough enough on first-time impaired drivers, lagging behind many other provinces, some experts say.
The criminal laws against impaired driving, from driving under the influence to impaired driving causing injury or death, and the penalties that go with them — ranging from fines to jail and prison time — are spelled out in the Criminal Code of Canada and apply nationwide.
