Dear All,

Hope you're all doing well. I had a question about a friend. He wants to come to Canada on Visitor Visa and marry a Canadian Citizen. He has not applied for visitor visa yet. The question is can a visitor marry a canadian citizen in Canada while on visitor visa?
Also, how long does it take to get the spousal PR once they are married. The girl is in Quebec.

Yes they can but sponsorship will likely take 2+ yrs.
