When you show a passport at immigration they don’t check for criminal history unless you’re actually wanted or on an Interpol list. [/quote]

You also can't enter Canada with multiple misdemeanor convictions or a felony conviction, especially not any drug charges. You can quickly apply for a Canadian TRP to be granted temporary access and a lot of the time you can do that right at the border. At least I know you can when crossing in person by car. My uncle has a misdemeanor drug conviction on his record from the 70s. When I would visit him and my cousins during the summer in Buffalo, we'd have to allow an extra hour for him to apply for TRP at the border. You can apply before the trip, too, and I think once granted it is good for 2-3 years. He always said it was better to apply in person because the agents had a harder time saying no when you were there in person pleading your reason why you wanted to enter Canada, which in our case was always shopping, ha. We made the trip probably a dozen or so times and he was never denied entry. [/quote]
