i'm a greencard holder (u.s.a) do ineed a visa to travel to canada?

Yes you do!

It doesn't matter if you are a US citizen, you still need a visa except the good part is that a US passport is granted an entry visa right at the border (I am thinking you wan to drive there).

no i dont think so,

NO YOU DON'T NEED A VISA TO ENTER CANADA. YOU'RE A US RESIDENT. NOT A TOURIST.
I KNOW SO B/C MY MOM TRAVELED TO CANADA W/ HER GRNCARD LOTS OF TIME. JUST SHOW THE CARD TO THE CUSTOM OFFICER. U'R FINE TO GO.

You can drive across the border without a greencard/visa/passport, but you will need a passport if you plan on flying or going by boat to Canada.

no, you don't. i visited canada in 2004 and i just presented my green card at the port of entry. but, laws are forever changing and not sure if that has changed since 2004

I just asked my friend that lives in Canada and this was his response:
"no you dont just a drivers liscence or a passport makes it easier but a liscence is fine for american citecins"

You don't need a visa. You will have to carry your greencard and passport. Passport should not have expired.

Check with any travel agent and they will have latest info.

No, you don't need a visa.

No
you do not need a visa



Current Requirements for Entry Into Canada

Visas are not required for U.S. citizens entering Canada from the U.S. You will, however, need:

1.
Proof of your U.S. citizenship such as your U.S. passport (For information on obtaining a U.S. passport, check with one of the regional passport agencies located throughout the U.S.) or certified copy of your birth certificate issued by the city, county or state in the U.S. where you were born. If you are a naturalized U.S. citizen and do not have a passport, you should travel with your naturalization certificate. A driver’s license, voter’s registration card or Social Security card is NOT valid proof of citizenship.
2.
Photo identification, such as a current, valid driver’s license.

All U.S. citizens entering Canada from a third country must have a valid passport.

Alien permanent residents of the U.S. must present their Alien Registration Card, commonly called a “Green Card.”
