Best Answer

Americans do not need a visa to visit Canada on business or to work in Canada for an extended period of time. However, Americans must have proof of citizenship. To obtain proof of your citizenship, you must apply for a work permit. This is not the same thing as a Canadian work visa. A work permit is only required to prove that you are a citizen of the United States. To get your work permit, visit the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website and complete an application. You�ll be asked for your passport and employment information, so make sure to have that information on hand.
