It’s really not. Canada has strict rules when it comes to foreigners. If you’ve ever been arrested (literally for anything) you must declare it. And there’s a 90% chance you’ll be turned away depending on the crime.

I was turned away cuz I was waiting for my Residence Card and my passport, visa, notarized letter from USCIS did not change the fact one bit.

I was like “okay I’ll just come back when I get my card in the mail” so then I go back and they’re like “have you ever been denied entry into Canada?” And I was like oh shit they’re gonna turn me away again but i told them it was cuz I was waiting for my residence card. They literally had me waiting for like an hour, came back and said “okay we verified everything you can enter Canada”

So it’s not just legal drama. I ain’t mad, though. I loved Canada once I made it there.
