Will I get a better exchange rate using an ATM once I get to Canada, or should I ask my bank to exchange my cash in the USA before I go? Or is there a better way to change from USD to Canadian dollars?

Hon. Gurbax Malhi on the high rate of refusals for Visitor Visas

Posted June 4th, 2010 by immigratecanada and filed in Uncategorized


HOUSE OF COMMONS, OTTAWA – Sep. 30th 2009 Hon. Gurbax Malhi: “Mr. Speaker, every week I meet with constituents to discuss solutions for various problems. The single most common issue that I am asked to address is the high rates of refusal for temporary residence visas. Relatives and friends are denied entry to Canada for important events like birthday celebrations, weddings and funerals. Many applicants who have been granted visas in the past are now finding their applications being rejected without ever being told why. The refusal by the government to address the needs of Canadians by amending the current practices for issuing visas and creating a bond system is only causing anguish for Canadians and their families. I call on the government to immediately institute a system of visitor visa bonds and end the unfair treatment of these Canadians and their loved ones abroad.” Keep in touch with the Hon.
