Italian graduate student studying in a French University and going to Ottawa

[Jurafsky]

Hello all,
I hope you will help me because I'm getting confused. ???

This is my situation:

- I'm an Italian graduate student and I'm doing my PhD in France. I'm 29.
- I'm going to do a 4 months internship-collaboration at National Research Council of Ottawa. I won't be paid for this.
- Maybe I'll have a grant from my university. Anyway, I've a salary as graduate student so I can "survive" during my stay in Canada.

My question is:
is this type of Visa ("Work related to a research, educational or training program [R205(c)(i), (i.1) and (i.2)] (codes C31, C32 and C33)") right for me? Or maybe can I apply to other types of Visa?

Thanks for your help
