Licensed Canadian immigration guidance
A Temporary Resident Permit allows entry to Canada despite an existing inadmissibility, issued case by case when the need to travel is found to outweigh the risk associated with the inadmissibility — useful for time-sensitive travel while a permanent solution like Criminal Rehabilitation is still pending or not yet available.
