    Canada also has entry restrictions

    Anyone with a simple drug possession or drunk driving conviction, no matter how minor, can and will be turned back at the Canadian border.

    "DUI charges or drug convictions (anytime in recent or ancient history) could mean you will be denied entry into Canada. Your records in the US can be accessed by our Customs & Immigration officers through co-operative agreements between the US and Canada."
