Indian citizen with US Green Card do I need transit visa?
I'm an Indian citizen with US Green Card, and flying from Dallas -> Vancouver -> Delhi both legs on Air Canada.
6 our layover in Vancouver.
Do I require a transit visa? How do I get it? Can I get it on arrival?
My flight leaves in 2 weeks, so worried. Thanks in advance for the help.

You'll need to present an eTA pre-arranged per the questionnaire at:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration...sit/apply.html
Can be obtained online with a credit card -- the questionnaire will give you a link. Just like the USA, no sterile transit in Canada.

You need an eTA, but not a visa.
Make sure you present your US Green Card at the airport check-in otherwise you will be told you need a visa to transit through Canada like most Indian citizens.
