Hi Experts

Need your advise /suggestion

Background : Am an Indian citizen but work in USA in IT and have a small family here (wife and a kid).

Earlier I was planning to pursue higher studies (i.e do masters) from Canada . I got accepted to UBC and thus applied for study visa which got approved .

My studies are set to start next year in Jan but the family situation has changed now . Owing to family reasons i don't think i can study anymore in near future and will have to drop study plan . I am still in USA and haven't traveled to Canada yet

Questions -- >
a) If i don't travel to Canada on study visa , will that cause any issue in future if i apply for work permit or visitor visa ,etc or any future visa application ?

b) Am i supposed to inform CIC if i drop my study visa or will they automatically know if i never travel on study visa to Canada and will that be considered negative ?

Please let me know your opinion as i really confused as to the direction i should choose at this stage of my life

Thanks in advance

Regards
rohan
