Can I get insured with a minor suspension?

After a year of saving up some money I’m about to pull the trigger on getting my class 1 license but I have some questions someone here can maybe help me with.

Just for some background, I live in Alberta, Canada and over here we have a graduated license program in which you cannot have any alcohol in your system. 2 years ago, I got pulled over and blew .02. I had my license suspended for 30 days and my vehicle impounded. Although it is NOT considered a DUI or a criminal offense it still shows up on my abstract and raised my personal insurance rate.

A friend at work told me it would be nearly impossible to get insured with a company with this sort of infraction unless it was 5-10 years ago. I’ve tried reaching out to some company’s and lawyers but have gotten no real answers. The driving schools are more than willing to take my money but getting hired is a completely different story.

What do you guys think?

Is it possible to get hired or insured with a company with this 30 day roadside suspension 2+ years ago?

Should I even bother investing the time and money to get my class 1 if it’s next to impossible to get insured/hired?

Any input or speculation is helpful. Thanks!!
