===If you fight the criminal charges in court===
In responding to impaired driving-related charges under the ''Criminal Code'', you must decide how to '''plead'''. [http://dialalaw.peopleslawschool.ca/pleading-guilty-[Pleading Guilty to-a-criminal-charge/ Criminal Charge (Script 212)|Pleading guilty]] means you accept responsibility for the offence. Pleading “not guilty” means the court will set a '''trial'''.
At the trial, the prosecutor must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you committed the offence.
