Ontario’s Graduated Driver Licensing system has three levels (G1 license, G2 license, and G license). Each license has specific restrictions designed to prepare drivers for safe driving. You must complete the G1 and G2 license stages within five years otherwise you must start all over again.
In Ontario, the G1 class license is the beginner’s driver’s license or learner’s permit. The Canadian G1 license allows the driver to drive on roads with a supervising driver who has at least four years of driving experience and whose BAC is less than 0.05. G1 is the first of three classes to complete the graduated licensing system. The other two classes are G2 and G.
In Ontario, you can apply for a G1 license if you are at least 16 years old. As a new driver, you will need to practice driving and gain experience over time. For most people, the two-step process takes about 20 months to finish. Here’s how you get a driver’s license.

Depending on whether you are a novice or a fully licensed driver, you will accumulate a different number of demerit points before receiving a penalty. For a G1 or G2 driver in Ontario, collecting six to eight demerit points could result in a license suspension. And at nine demerit points, you will receive a 60-day license suspension.
