My Dad has asked me about doing a Moose hunt in Canada, probably next year. As Dad is getting on in years, I can see the possibility of this being our last big hut together, other than deer and hogs. We will be driving to Alberta most likely as this will be most affordable for us and make it easiest to bring the meat back. The problem is, I did something very stupid in 2006 and gout a DUI in Wisconsin. Please spare the lectures as I am well aware of what a dumb move that was. But My question is- what do I need to do to be allowed back into Canada for this hunt? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Found this with a quick google search.
 
How would the Canadian government know if you had a DUI? Is there a driving record check at CBP?
 
While a DWI/DUI will show up on your driving record, it is a reportable crime to NCIC here in the USA. It will follow you till you cross the River Jorden.

If you are bored watch a few seasons of this one. This is a little older set of shows.


One question from them and lie and you could be inadmissible for life.
"Ever been in trouble with police or been arrested?"

Poof!

NCIC. Is that the same system for our firearms background check?

My buddy is being delayed on his EMT recertification because of one. Good thing he's not employed as one right now, since yesterday was the last day.
A guy can't even work to take care of his family because of one poor decision....crappy system IMO

Banned for life? Damn!
 
Three Canadians responded and not one lecture. Hmmmm. :)
The official Canadian lecture is now on the issue of gender equality. Be prepared to meet our stringent standards just like we imposed on China, the US and India o_O:rolleyes:

Yes, the instant check, checks the NCIC files.

Here what's in it from Wikipedia:
The NCIC makes available a variety of records to be used for law enforcement and security purposes. The NCIC database includes 21 files: 14 person files and 7 property files.[7]

Person files:[7]

  • Missing Persons File - Records on individuals, including children, who have been reported missing to law enforcement and there is a reasonable concern for their safety.
  • Foreign Fugitive File - Records on persons wanted by another country for a crime that would be a felony if it were committed in the United States.
  • Identity Theft File - Records containing descriptive and other information that law enforcement personnel can use to determine if an individual is a victim of identity theft or if the individual might be using a false identity.
  • Immigration Violator File - Records on criminal aliens whom immigration authorities have deported and aliens with outstanding administrative warrants of removal.
  • Protection Order File - Records on individuals against whom protection orders have been issued.
  • Supervised Release File - Records on individuals on probation, parole, or supervised release or released on their own recognizance or during pre-trial sentencing.
  • Unidentified Persons File- Records on unidentified deceased persons, living persons who are unable to verify their identities, unidentified victims of catastrophes, and recovered body parts. The file cross-references unidentified bodies against records in the Missing Persons File.
  • U.S. Secret Service Protective File - Records containing names and other information on individuals who are believed to pose a threat to the U.S. president and/or others afforded protection by the U.S. Secret Service.
  • Gang File - Records on violent gangs and their members.
  • Known or Appropriately Suspected Terrorist File - Records on known or appropriately suspected terrorists in accordance with HSPD-6.
  • Wanted Persons File - Records on individuals (including juveniles who will be tried as adults) for whom a federal warrant or a felony or misdemeanor warrant is outstanding.
  • National Sex Offender Registry File - Records on individuals who are required to register in a jurisdiction’s sex offender registry.
  • National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) Denied Transaction File - Records on individuals who have been determined to be “prohibited persons” according to the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act and were denied as a result of a NICS background check. (As of August 2012, records include last six months of denied transactions; in the future, records will include all denials.)
  • Violent Person File - Once fully populated with data from our users, this file will contain records of persons with a violent criminal history and persons who have previously threatened law enforcement.
Property files:[7]

  • Article File - Records on stolen articles and lost public safety, homeland security, and critical infrastructure identification.
  • Boat File - Records on stolen boats.
  • Gun File - Records on stolen, lost, and recovered weapons and weapons that are designed to expel a projectile by air, carbon dioxide, or explosive action and have been used in the commission of crimes.
  • License Plate File - Records on stolen license plates.
  • Securities File - Records on serially numbered stolen, embezzled, used for ransom, or counterfeit securities.
  • Vehicle and Boat Parts File - Records on serially numbered stolen vehicle or boat parts.
  • Vehicle File - Records on stolen vehicles, vehicles involved in the commission of crimes, or vehicles that may be seized based on federally issued court order.
While I don't personally use it, I do see everyday some of what it in.

The same way US Customs know about everything a Canadian has done they share everything. Don’t take a chance do as Brickburn says, if you don’t and get caught they can bar you for life. All it takes is one power tripping Borders Service officer.

The USA will crucify you for a DUI, yet, many states want to legalize Marijuana.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around that.

Hell, Marijuana will be legal up here shortly.
Just don't drive stoned. It will get you into the same trouble.
