I have been issued a Canadian B1 visa (Visitor-Business) as I travel to Canada for business meeting. I would like accompany my family on separate tourist/sightseeing trip to Toronto, Canada. Can I travel using the Canadian B1 visa which is valid, or should I apply again for a Temporary Resident Visa (V1 Category)

Yes, you can travel as a tourist on your current TRV

Hello, were you able to travel as a tourist on business-visitor b1 visa? Did they ask for any documentation at entry?
Thanks

Hi, I'm assuming you were planning to travel for tourism with your B1 business visitor visa. How did you travel go through?
