Hello @Anwerhussainch,

Welcome to the Wefugees community!

As a very similar question has previously been asked and answered on our platform, please have **** :-)

You can find the answer here:

Asylum to Canada While on transit 

Also, have a **** at this website by the Canadian government about "Claiming Asylum in Canada - what happens?":

Please note that flying to Canada requires a visa (also check the expiry date of your passport):

"Holders of Alien’s passport and Stateless individuals need a visa to visit or transit Canada"

Here is more information on how to get a visitor's visa:

I hope these sources help. Of course you can reach out to the community again if you have any further questions!

All the best,

Isa
