An impaired driver in Georgian Bay Township nearly lost it all, a Bracebridge court heard recently.
Noah Courriere, 29, of Mactier, pled guilty to driving with over 80 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood in his system.
Court heard that on Nov. 1, 2024, Bracebridge OPP were called to a single-vehicle collision on 12 Mile Bay Road in Georgian Bay Township.

He ultimately blew a reading of 120 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood in his system.
Courriere was sentenced to a $1,500 fine and a one-year driving ban.
