I didnt pay anything or get any piece of paper a couple years ago. Either way, fuck Canada. Talked with my sister last night and she was like "you'll be fine. they will not turn you away. but have a plan B in case."

​

great. fuck canada. i'm 3.5 years sober and want to be with my sister who lived in singapore for 15 years. she's common law married to hockey royalty family and my only niece is 1.5 years old and she loves me and took her first steps on thanksgiving with 17 people around in maine.

but F canada if they don't let my shitbag ass in. i know rules are rules and i broke the rules and the consequences are what they are. but i don't even have a drivers license (by choice), let alone intend to drink and drive. I just want to be with my family for christmas. sacre bleau!

>anted it, it is good forever so you can enter Canada freely after that. It's a money grab no doubt, and in my opinion Canada is over zealous in this regard, Canada could seriously devote these resources elsewhere (like gun smugglers for example). However, you should have few issues visiting other countries (tourist) as your passport will not show your criminal record like it would for Canadian border officials, but it is always good to do a bit of research before you book a flight. Best wishes.

Well, I sincerely hope this isn't true. I have a nasty history from a few years ago. I was able to get into Canada afterward (2018-19). This was driving to montreal with my mother, aunt and cousin (me in the back seat). I am planning on flying up there for xmas this year and am very, very nervous that they will turn me away. My sister is married to a Canadian, with a baby and a good job. She wasn't back then the first time though.

Sounds like the agents DO have a little discretion. Fingers crossed.
