If You Use Your Car for Both Business and Pleasure

Short Answer

If you use your car for both business and pleasure, the Canada Revenue Agency will usually allow you to report a portion of the costs of operating the vehicle as a business expense. This portion is determined by the ratio of the distance travelled on business to the total distance travelled in the year.
