Have both US Green card and CA PR card. Now need to visit Canada.

[zioxu]

I have both US Green card and CA PR card. I currently live in the US. I am not planning to renew CA PR Card after it expires.

We now have a travel plan to Canada. Can I just show my US green card to CBSA and enter Canada? Will there be extra hassles as I also have CA PR card?

In the above case s/he got a PR card and hence cannot apply for eTA to Canada. The green card comes in handy to go back to the US.

But if you read the link, it says if s/he enter Canada by car, bus train or boat (cruise ship), s/he need to carry proof of US lawful permanent resident status such as the green card.
