Your Green Card should suffice. Here is a (very) long answer I gave to a similar Q recently. I recommend you go to the links below and read the websites yourself.

OK, I am going to give you advice from official websites. This will be a long asnwer; but, you'll get the info you want from the "horse's mouth", as opposed to from somebody you don't know in Askville. As I understand it, you need your green card in lieu of a US passport.

You do not need a visa, as long as you have your US alien registration card (green card). Read on. Pay close attention to the yellow highlighted sections, especially those in the section Visitor Visa Exemptions.

You may wish to go to the original websites. I gave you the links. Safe travels.PS--the Canadian Government reserves the right to admit or bar admission to persons who have all of the correct papers.

The Canadian government just blocked entry of a British Member of Parliament who in Canada's judgment provided assistance to a terrorist group (Hamas). Needless to say, the MP was ticked. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/apply-who.asp Visiting Canada: Who is eligible To visit Canada, you must: have a valid travel document, such as a passport be in good health satisfy an immigration officer that you have ties, such as a job, home and family, that will take you back to your country of origin satisfy an immigration officer that you will leave Canada at the end of your visit and have enough money for your stay.

The amount of money you will need can vary with the circumstances of the visit, how long you will stay and whether you will stay in a hotel or with friends or relatives. For more information, ask the Canadian visa office in your country or region. You may also need: a Temporary Resident Visa, depending on your citizenship (see Visas and Exemptions below) a medical examination and a letter of invitation from someone who lives in Canada.

Travel documents Transport companies, such as airlines, must ensure you have proper, valid travel documents when you enter Canada. If you do not have the proper documents, you may be delayed or denied boarding. Visas and exemptions You may or may not need a Temporary Resident Visa to visit Canada, depending on your citizenship.

Even if you are exempt, though, there is important information you need to know before you plan your trip. If you need a visa, see How to Apply for a Visa in the Learn About section below to find out how to get your visa. If you do not need a visa, see Visa Exempt – Important Information for Travellers in the Learn About section below.

If you are not sure, see Do You Need a Visa? In the Related Links section at the bottom of this page. Inadmissibility Some people are inadmissible—they are not allowed to come to Canada.

Several things can make you inadmissible, including involvement in criminal activity, in human rights violations or in organized crime. You can also be inadmissible for security, health or financial reasons. Criminal inadmissibility If you have committed or been convicted of a criminal offence, you may not be allowed to enter Canada.

Criminal offences include both minor and serious offences, such as theft, assault, manslaughter, dangerous driving and driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. For a complete list of criminal offences in Canada, consult the Canadian Criminal Code. If you were convicted of a crime when you were under the age of 18, you can probably still enter Canada.

See the Related Links at the bottom of this page for more information about admissibility. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/visas.asp Countries and territories whose citizens require visas in order to enter Canada as visitors Citizens of the following countries and territories require a Visa to VISIT or TRANSIT Canada: A Afghanistan Albania Algeria Angola Argentina Armenia Azerbaijan B Bahrain Bangladesh Belarus Belize Benin Bhutan Bolivia Bosnia-Herzegovina Brazil Bulgaria Burkina Faso Burundi C Cambodia Rep.
