http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/index-visit.html Visiting Canada Overview Visitors come to Canada for a temporary stay. They include tourists, people visiting family in Canada, business travellers, students, and temporary workers. Visitors bring important economic, social and cultural benefits to Canada, contribute to global trade and cooperation, and promote international understanding. In 1999, 49 million foreign travellers visited Canada (Statistics Canada). Almost 90% of these visitors were citizens or residents of the United States. Planning to visit Canada? Most visitors need a valid passport, and many require visitor's visas. Different requirements exist for citizens or permanent residents of the United States, St. Pierre and Miquelon and Greenland. Visitors to Canada must satisfy an immigration officer that: they intend to return to their home country and will not try to stay in Canada; they are in good health (some visitors may be asked to undergo a medical examination at their own expense); they do not have a criminal record or are a security risk; they have sufficient funds to cover travel costs and support themselves in Canada; If you do not meet these criteria, you may be denied admission to Canada.
