Im planning to visa one of my friends in toronto this summer, I just recently started teaching in january, since I moved back home after finishing school in the US, I have a son as well ie Im a single mother, therefore my bank account isnt as healthy as it ought to be. In addition I have started a small business with my mom, so in addition to visiting my friend Im trying to find potential suppliers for my business on this trip, I really want to visit this summer need to get away etc... Does anyone have any advice? Im a bit wary since my cousin applied a few years ago and they turned her down (she's a single mom too and works at a bank).

What country are you based in?
How long do you intend to stay?

If you are on a business trip to find suppliers, that is a valid reason to visit Canada as "a business visitor", but you still need to be able to show you can meet all the criteria set out by Canadian immigration. They want to be sure you can support yourself while you are here, and that you will leave at the end of your visit.
