My sister has a valid visitor visa that will expire on 8/3. When is the last day she can enter Canada? For example, can she enter few days before her visa expires then apply for extension from within? Thanks.

1. You are mixing apples and oranges.
2. Her valid TRV (visitor visa) allows her to apply for entry at a Canadian Port of Entry, as long as it is valid, and there are no problems she would be admitted as a visitor. It is up to the officer to determine how much time she would be given as a visitor. Usually 6 months.
3. If she wants a new TRV, when her's expires, then she would have to apply to an overseas office for a new one.
