Quebec Launches Enhanced License

The Province of Quebec has rolled out its version of the Enhanced Driver License.

Quebec Premier Jean Charest proudly showed his new license, which features the number 00001, as it is the first one issued in Quebec.

"This new Driver License will allow people to have the flexibility they need to move back and forth across the border," Charest said.

The Quebec Enhanced Driver License will cost an additional $40. It has been deemed acceptable by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for entry into the United States under the provisions of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, slated to take effect June 1.
