Sorry to ressurect this but I'm planning a trip to Winnipeg for a week during the World Cup and just learned of the restrictions. Happened summer 2011, nothing else on record, no injuries/damage, no jail time.


Has anyone gone through the process of the TRP and can provide some direction here? the CiC and the consulate sites and a continual loop of confusion. The inadmissible page says a TRP may be obtained to gain legal admission. When you click the link the page provides it says visa-exempt countries may have their own form. It says otherwise submit a temporary resident visa application. USA is exempt but I can't find anything definitive on the LA/NY sites that says if there is or is not our own form. So then there is the temporary resident visa. But I thought I needed a permit, not a visa? Why do the seem interchangable, even on the same CiC page?

Once its known what forms/checklist i Actually need to follow, which office is it sent to?
