These links below outlines which countries need a visa to visit Canada, where to go in your country for information, where to apply for your visitors visa and also forms for applying for a visa. They also explain if you have to have medical clearance etc. Hope this helps and enjoy your trip to Canada. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/visas.html

Check with the Canadian consulate in UK, but you may not need a visa to come for a vacation. At one time, members (and former members) of the British Empire travelled without visas to Canada. I know that has changed in some regards (India, for example, needs a visa now) but not sure if UK is on that list or not. Your Canadian Consul will be able to tell you for sure.
Hope you have a great time here!

Yes, I believe you need a passport to enter Canada unless you are American then all you need is proof of being an American such as a voter registration card and a driver's license. Since you are from the UK you will probably need a passport. You will have to contact your courthouse in the UK about getting a passport or checking on the rules a little more about this there. I'm sure they will have more answers to those questions than we will here. None of us are real experts in this matter I'm sure. I'm a Canadian and I'm an American. I'm just guessing at your question as most people here are.

no visa, just a plane ticket to return home. you can stay for at least 6 month before you need a visa. unless you would like to work, then it is an other story, but you did not ask for that, did you?!?!!
Hey, have fun, it is a great country to visit!!!
by the way, don't forget your passport, it will make it a lot easier!!!

Dude! We are part of the Common Wealth. It's like a secret handshake. No visa required, just come and have fun. Same with New Zealand, Australia, etc. (Might be different for Africa, I don't know.)
Passport for you, and birth certificates for your children.

You do not need a visa - just bring your UK Passport.

maximum human beings would be clueless to what you have asked, besides the undeniable fact that, an enhanced place to pose your question often is the remote places embassy of the country you desire to bypass to. investigate this source and notice in the event that they are able to be of any help.

Jump up & down three times, run around the block twice and do thirteen jumping jacks and they'll let you in.
