My wife just got her PPR to come to Canada and we're starting to sort out the B4 form and all that jazz. One item we're puzzled with is her pet turtle. She has a red-eared slider and would like to bring it with her. Does anyone else have experience bringing pets in to Canada, specifically reptiles?
Read this,

While you may not need an import permit, you may need to find out whether you can import a turtle. You may need to contact the Canadian Food Inspection Agency,

Just make sure you tell them that the importer is a new immigrant and that the turtle is a pet turtle (and what type of turtle it is).
