Alcohol regulation is by province so may differ from province to province.
In Quebec alcohol is allowed on a boat, while cruising or not, within the .8g/l limit.
In Ontario alcohol while cruising is prohibited, and only authorized on boat that have accommodation to sleep and head, within the .8g/l limit.
The funny part now.
The border between Quebec and Ontario is right in the middle of the river where I am cruising. So if on the Ontario side I cannot have a glass on wine before being at anchor but if I move few feet on the other side I can [emoji2]
And yes there are some control from OPD on the river, usually limited to cruisers with young people aboard.
