Visiting Canada

By imposing a visa, isn’t Canada denying refugee protection to those who need it?

No. Canada’s refugee protection system continues to be fair and currently has one of the highest acceptance rates among western countries. The visa imposition does not bar anyone from making an asylum application. Czech nationals will simply be required to have a Temporary Resident Visa to travel to Canada.
