After overstaying a visa in US and leaving the US in 1997, can I get a tourist visa to Canada?
No one can say for sure without knowing other details about your profile. Im sure you are welcomed to apply, just make sure that you tell the truth about your history in the USA. Otherwise they can find out and ban you from Canada.

Overstaying can hurt your chances but that was many years ago so would also depend where you are now and what your current situation is.

I went back home in 1997, never been caught, never arrested. And I stayed home until now. I don't even know if I want to go to another country again, but just in case I do, I wanted to know.

Thanks for the information.
