Wait a minute. You mean to say the penalty for drunk canoeing wasn’t a fine or a night in jail, but losing your auto license? That seems like a minor detail left out of the headline. As it is, it sounds like Canadian Parliament cancels plan to legalize drunk canoeing.

Yes, you can lose your driving license, and have your car impounded. And the parliament did not plan to legalize it, only to remove the drunk driving charge - the charge for being intoxicated in public would still apply.
