Hello,

I have a valid Canadian visa and closed work permit and live in BC. Can I leave Canada and return by flight, landing in a different province than where I live (Québec for example) and then take a domestic flight to BC? Where do visa checks happen?

Is this not recommended?

Suspect that visa checks before you even board the flight. Your first interaction with CBSA (to verify your eligibility to actually enter Canada) would be the first airport where you deplane.

You go through immigration at the first point of entry into Canada.
