I am not sure there if there is a separate room for those newbie people with basic questions but what is visitor's visa?

Hi Izzie, generally it's best to start a new thread if you have a new question, so I moved your post into a new thread. Basic questions are fine, of course - we all start somewhere!

A visitor visa is a visa issued by a Canadian embassy outside Canada that allows a non-Canadian permission to visit Canada (not work, or study). Citizens of many countries don't need a visa to visit - this is called visa-exempt. There is more info here:
