Can a Conditional Green Card holder with a Philippine passport travel to Canada without a Visa?

I looked around and got some conflicting answers. Anyone know for sure?

Everything I read says yes a green card holder can travel to Canada without a visa, as my wife and I have plans to travel to Canada to visit friends and family.

On our last flight to Philippines we booked tickets that had a layover in Vancouver. When we tried to board the flight in Chicago they told us my wife couldn't go through Canada because she was a Philippine citizen and didn't have a Canadian visa. After a very tense and tearfull 15 minutes a kind lady arrived and asked if my wife had a greencard. After we replied YES, she said, no problem then, you can board. The man that refused her was clueless.

hypocrit - a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

Pet Peeve for 2011 - supercilious, contemptuous, arrogant, attitudes.

I think she was only asked for her passport the time. I can't really remember the details, it was 2011. The airline had just started that flight through Vancouver and didn't really know whtat they were doing yet.

You'd do better off crossing over into Alabama, and foregoing that whole Canadian adventure.

Both Canada and Mexico make exceptions to the requirement for visas to green card holders

The rules are basically identical for Mexico

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
