Suitcases

Mark your set of suitcases/luggage bag with a tape so that they can be easily recognized on the belt when you reach Canada
Do not surpass the upper weight limit of bags else you will have to leave extra things at the airport itself

You can lock the two suitcases as they will be placed in the aircraft after you get your boarding pass at the airport
Keep all your important documents in your carry-on bag or laptop bag as you will be asked to show them frequently

Never leave you carry-on/laptop bag unattended as they contain important documents like Passport/Documents to be shown at Point of Entry to get study permit

Go for good quality suitcases (i wont recommend costly ones but they should be reliable)
For the ease of strolling keep the heavy objects/things close to the stroller wheels this way it wont be difficult to stroll the luggage bags

Do no keep any liquid/eatables/sharp edged objects (nail cutter/knife etc) in your carry on bag

If you are carrying any general medicines please have a bill of that from the chemist and keep the bill in your wallet so that it can be shown if asked for

Documents

Dont forget to carry your passport
Acceptance letter of your college
Letter of introduction confirming acceptance of your application for a study permit for Canada
Other documents (if any) instructed by the CHC when visa was delivered
Carry your educational qualification certificates/degrees
Carry the xerox copies of all the important documents with you
Also scan and email all the documents to your email account so that in case any documents is lost you can rely on the ones
Latest passport size photographs and stamp size photographs at least 12 of them.

Money

Its advisable to carry 2000 CAD with you.

Always carry a change of 10$ with you coz you will need 25 cent coins to make calls(to your parent back in home country/friends in Canada) from PCO at canadian airport

Its good if you keep the currency of the country where the aircraft have stay. Like if your stay is in London then keep few pounds with you in case you want to talk to your contacts
