Question: At or above what BAC does the federal Criminal Code apply in Alberta?

Answer options:

  • 0.04
  • 0.05
  • 0.06 ✅ 0.08

Correct answer: 0.08

Explanation: In Alberta, a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 percent or higher triggers federal Criminal Code charges. This differs from provincial laws, which impose administrative penalties such as license suspensions and vehicle seizures starting at the lower limit of 0.05 percent. Options like 0.04 and 0.06 are incorrect because they do not mark these official legal boundaries. The underlying concept divides provincial administrative sanctions starting at 0.05 from more severe federal criminal prosecution at 0.08. Class 7 candidates must memorize these specific thresholds, as the exam frequently tests the distinction between provincial roadside suspensions and criminal offences.
