I don't think Canada will care - they certainly never look for other visas/stamps in my passport that I've noticed.

Canada will only care that you have a valid visa to enter their country. In your case, as a permanent US resident you are allowed to enter as a tourist without issue. You must have a valid passport and your greencard.

AC also has their own rules for certain passport holders... so you may need a return ticket as proof you won't stay in Canada... not sure if this is trumped by your green card.

At the border they never care to look at what countries I've visited.
Both at Canada and USA.
And in ICN.

Demeaning or not, get used to it. More and more countries are taking fp's upon arrival. Your current country of residence, the USA, is leading the pack in this regard.

When flying into the USA the USA fingerprints non-citizens and non-Canadians. I don't know if they fingerprint US green card holders, or children.
A web search could probably tell you.

Are you writing from a smart phone? The absence of capitalization, punctuation & spellcheck makes your posts very difficult to read.

I did a google search - They will fingerprint anyone 14 and older.
However, your post confuses me. You have a green card and you're in Jamaica now, correct? Unless you choose to never re-enter the USA, you're going to be fingerprinted sooner or later when you return to the USA, either from Canada, or from Jamaica.
