10 years (bodily harm) / life (death)
Hybrid offence. Hit-and-run causing bodily harm or death is serious criminality under IRPA s.36(1). Even without injury, this creates inadmissibility under s.36(2).
Leaving a crash scene instead of staying and identifying yourself. Where someone was injured the maximum is 10 years, and where someone died it is life, which lands a hit and run in serious criminality territory. Even where nobody was hurt the conviction still counts at the border, because the charge can be prosecuted the serious way.
