Visiting Scholar - Work Visa required?

[harrypabz]

Hello Guru's,

I am travelling to a Canadian university as a visiting scholar in September for 15 days. I already have a valid visitor visa from a previous visit. Do I need a work visa for this visit? I will not be getting paid during my trip.

What will you be doing during your visit?
