Not sure how you would want a forum to provide you, personally, with a genuine purpose to visit? Perhaps try telling them the reasons YOU want to come to Canada.

Thanks for your reply....I am just going to visit my cousin but i don't think thats enough reason to convince the visa officer to grant the visa so thats why i want opinions of different purpose of visit maybe i can get one that is more situable..

Only you would know why you want to visit your cousin and uncle.

Hint: Why have they invited you?

There you have your answer! You will be visiting for a family visit + for sightseeing/tourism.

You can prepare a detailed day-by-day plan for your visit (sightseeing, meeting family, or staying at home on some days) + include estimated expenses for each day.

It doesn't matter that he is your cousin. It would be the same even if your brother had to invite you

Do check with your local VAC/VFS. Some visa offices required a notarized letter (so it must be mailed to you), whereas other visa offices will accept a PDF version of the invitation letter
