I've already updated my passport, but now I'm reading online that Canada won't allow anyone into the country with a felony conviction. Regardless of crime or length of time. My crimes were hacking into Equifax and Transunion. This was back in 1992 - over 20 years ago.

Will they really deny me entry because of this? Do they ask you at the gate if you've ever been convicted? How do they know if you are or not? I did the time for my crime, but even after 20 years, I still feel like I'm being punished.
Now tell me why Ukrainians who never committed a crime are kept away under visa regime?
