It is unlawful or unlawful for any passenger riding in a limousine to consume alcoholic beverages in the Ontario, Canada area. The same goes for Calgary, Canada. This statute was passed in February 2007, although many people were unaware of its existence until recently because the statute has recently undergone revision.

This statute is also in the city of Calgary, Canada and they are not very happy with it. Some companies have even filed formal complaints with the city claiming that these laws do not encourage responsible decisions against driving under the influence of alcohol. And that’s one of the main reasons people choose to take a limo so they don’t have to drink and drive. The reasons for celebration have almost been eliminated. Not everyone drinks when traveling by limousine, but many people rent limousines for some type of celebration, including weddings and going out with their friends to a special event or a baseball or hockey game.

When going to and from an event, as a passenger in a limousine, you may carry alcoholic beverages in closed containers; however, no one can drink them in the back of the limo in Calgary or Ontario, Canada. The laws are different in various areas of Canada and when you cross the border into the United States, they are also different in various states.

Basically, the law defeats the purpose of going out to a limousine celebration and that’s what has many of the limousine companies and passengers up in arms. If you can’t drink while someone else is driving, then you can still go in your own car and have someone else drive, although it’s also illegal to be drinking in the car while someone else is driving. This brings up the law in states where there is a partition between the driver and the people who drink alcoholic beverages. In some states this is considered legal and Canadians think it should be too.

Unless the driver has a special license, his passengers are not allowed to drink in the back of the limousine. This means that if the limousine driver has a special license, his passengers can consume alcohol during their ride in the back of the limousine.

This special license is called an Ontario Liquor Delivery Service License and comes from the Registrar of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). This special license allows the driver to have his passengers consume alcoholic beverages in the back of the limousine.

The AGCO collects data on a limousine company and then has a rigorous testing policy before allowing a limousine company to obtain an Ontario Liquor Delivery Service License in which the limousine company can therefore deliver liquor or have liquor in the limo.

Drinking laws for passengers in Canada vary from Providence to Providence, so be diligent and check with your driver or limo company before uncorking any celebrations.
