Canadians with a criminal record (IE a DUI) can't enter the US without a waiver and vice versa.

I think Canadians with DUIs are ok to get in the US but not vice versa as a DUI is a felony in Canada but not the US. Obviously, I would call the US embassy/consulate before hand.
If you have a wet and reckless in the US you may be able to get into Canada without issue depending on the exact statute.

There is also a washout period for these, either 5 or 7 years.

But back to the cruiseship accident, even if a pilot was on board, the captain is going to take the fall. I imagine the usual pilot caveats and addendums are in place all over the world, but in the US the pilot acts in an advisory role only. Basically, if the pilot says "HARD TO PORT, FULL AHEAD" and the captain (or helmsman) does it and crashes into a berth filled with school children taking pictures escorted by a bus full of nuns, the pilot essentially walks off the boat and wipes his hands of the matter.

And continues on with his 350,000 a year job.

John Cota (Busan) lost his license and did prison time.
