Canadian Citizens can vist 125 countries without a Visa.
Based on a recent study conducted by Henley & Partners AG of Zurich, Canadians are free to travel the world without applying for a visitor visa to 125 different countries and territories.
"In today's globalized world, visa restrictions play an important role in controlling the movement of foreign nationals across borders," said Henley & Partners, which advises private and business clients on international tax and real estate issues. "Almost all countries now require visas from certain non-nationals who wish to enter their territory."
Afghanistan came in last place, with its citizens allowed free travel to just 12 countries. Internationally isolated Iran was next at 14, followed by Iraq, Myanmar and Somalia at 15.
Henley & Partners - which compiled the results by assessing some 40,000 combinations of countries and territories - said it was the first global ranking showing international freedom of travel.
"Visa requirements are also an expression of the relationships between individual nations, and generally reflect the relations and status of a country within the international community," the company said.
