Does Ontario and Quebec and Vermont have reciprocal laws?

We are not aware of any reciprocal agreements between state of Vermont and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec. We found in the Quebec Highway Safety Code Regulations that this Canadian province has reciprocal agreements with the some States such as New York and Florida regarding traffic violations but Vermont was not listed. And the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) for Ontario stated that they only have reciprocal agreements currently with Michigan and New York

We contacted the Vermont DMV Commissioner's office whose representative responded that no, VT does not currently have any type of reciprocal agreements with the Canadian province of Quebec or Ontario for moving violations such as speeding tickets at this time.

Laws do change and new agreements are made though so we would advise you to contact the Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to see if any new reciprocal agreements have been made that would allow these two areas to share moving violation ticketing information.

New compacts and agreements are made all the time that allow various areas to share information with each other and thus if a traffic ticket received in one area would be placed on the driving record of a driver licensed in the other area so to find out about the most recent laws and compacts always check with your local Department of Motor Vehicles or like state / province agency.

Even though Vermont does not have reciprocal agreements currently with Ontario and Quebec regarding moving violations you may get in these Canadian provinces if you receive tickets while in Canada with a Vermont driver's license it is still advisable to take care of the ticket and not ignore a moving violation from Canada.
