Bhole babaji, I thought the same way when I first landed in Canada. But you got to go through a visa process. No matter if you are a permanant resident or tourist you still have to apply for a visa. Like we discuss earlier in the thread US Consulate wants a Social and economy ties with canada before they can offer you the visa. But If you are a canadian citizen (obviously you are not) can just show that citizenship card at the border. So think hard b4 you land in canada.. Plus if you want to land in Toronto you might as well set up an appointment for visa interview with US COnsulate coz it usually is full for a month a head. Peace
