You may travel to Canada as a tourist before you get your permanent resident visa. However, Canada strongly advise against making any definitive arrangements for your stay in Canada until you have received your permanent resident visa.

Right. Donât cry if US tightens up.
only select countries can travel to Canada without per-approval,
Canada will straight up block full countries from VISA approval if they are a risk for overstaying.
Iâm a strong supporter of America using a Merit based system.
immigration is good but you should only take the best.

Does Canada have an anchor baby program? I agree that we should be selective on immigration and deport illegal aliens, not give them financial incentives. Glad you feel the same way.
we have birthright citizenship.
birth tourism is a growing issue.
but unlike America we can remove birthright citizenship with a simple Federal bill.

Its funny people think of Canada as being this openly country, multiculturalism, free moose rides.
but the truth that is a Public relations image in reality we have much of the policies American Republican have been asking for in the last two decades.
we had a immigration lawyer on TV when Prince Harry was thinking about moving here and she was like âHe wouldnât pass the test, he would need to be sponsored by his wifeâ
Your free to come if you donât have a criminal record.
even a drunk driving charge from 30 years ago is automatic refusal of entry.
not an issue in Canada when most of the country donât have their own police and federal (RCMP) do everything. 
Only Quebec and Ontario have their own police force but even then they take order from the RCMP if they step in.

I am already aware of that. I have no criminal records, donât drink alcohol. And i visit Canada from time to time. For the most part I like Canada and your laws.
These Obama Judges, Mayors and Governors seem to relish in harming Law Abiding Citizens! These people are sick to include those who support them in what they do.
