A multiple-entry visa, the Super Visa provides multiple entries into Canada for the visa holder for up to 10 years.
So, why not get a Canada Visitor Visa instead?
Those planning to go to Canada to meet their children/grandchildren settled there, and thereon stay within the country for up to 6 months will have to apply for the Canada Visitor Visa.
