International student - Want to come back to Canada after graduated?

[macho2028]

Hello,

I am international student and I am currently on vacation. However, I'm gonna graduate in May or early June. I notice that I still have my study permit and student visa valid until the end of 2012. Therefore, my question is:

Can I come back to Canada after graduation? Or, I have to apply new visa and new permit (i.e.: work permit) in order to enter and to stay in Canada?

Thank you very much for your advice.
