Yes you need to apply for a transit visa.

Apparently so, so try to get a direct flight, or bypass the USA.  It's a hassle since the majority of international flights go via the USA.

If you were to mention where you are coming from, someone before you  might have researched a better flight itinerary.

For example, from Costa Rica Air Canada flies directly to Toronto, not landing in the USA.
