Older Drivers and Legislation
Legislation and regulations about renewal of a driver’s license are determined by each province and territory. All Canadian jurisdictions have some legislation about when an older adult must renew their driver’s license. The requirements to renew a license are different for each province. Check with your provincial licensing authority to learn about their requirements.
The following link provides a table that gives an overview of the license renewal requirements for each province.
