    Ontario Drinking & Driving Laws:

    Please remember that Ontario has very strict drinking and driving laws. These laws extend to driving a boat. Drinking in a boat is exactly the same as drinking in a car. You cannot have any alcohol on your breath while driving a boat or open liquor in the boat at any time. There is zero tolerance in effect.

    The legal limit in Ontario is .08 ml of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. That's basically the level a 200-pound man will be at after drinking 2 bottles of beer. It' got nothing to do with feeling drunk and it's got nothing to do with feeling tipsy. Eating something makes you feel sober but in actual fact it slows down the metabolization of the alcohol and the alcohol stays in your system longer thus you have an even greater chance of being charged. 95% of people charged with "over .08" in Ontario are stone cold sober.

    If you think you are safe from the law because you are on a lake in the middle of the wilderness, think again. The Game Warden (Conservation Officer) and the Police fly around in a De Havilland Turbo Beaver and land on remote lakes. They will check your fishing license, see if you have any fish on a stringer, check for life jackets and required boat safety items and most of all make sure you are not boozing in the boat.

    These laws are for your own safety. When you are in the Ontario wilderness, safety is always #1 priority.
