I just applied for a temporary resident visa, followed all the instructions and satisfied all the requirements for the application for TEMPORARY RESIDENT VISA APPLICANTS WITH TEMPORARY STATUS IN THE US. I have a F-1 visa and it was refused because: "You have not satisfied me that you meet the requirements of Regulation 179; that you would leave Canada at the end of the temporary period if you were authorized to stay. In reaching this decision I considered your ties to your country of residence/citizenship balanced against factors which might motivate you stay in Canada".

I did not present proof of ties to my country because that was not a requirement for the type of US visa I have, that requirement is for B1/B2 Visa. I have a round trip ticket with hotel reservation that I showed but it was not enough for the Visa Officer.
I feel powerless and helpless with this situation. All the work, time, and money invested for nothing. I was wondering if I should apply with the additional documentation to a different consulate, reapply to same one I already did or just cancel flight, hotel plans?

I have ties with my country which I am going to proof next time and we were just going for a touristic weekend to Canada, where we were going to spend our money, which apparently is not a value for the Canadian visa officer. What should I do?
