I'm going to McGill University in Montreal this coming fall. My application for study permit was approved last week and a Temporary Resident Visa (Category S-1) was issued.
However, I was wondering if it's possible for me to visit Canada with my parents, as a tourist, in June (I am not from a visa-exempt country) before my classes start? We are planning to spend a month in Vancouver and Toronto each and then my parents will finally drop me off at college in Montreal and leave - my residence move-in date is August 23, 2013. Both my parents have valid V-1 visas, so that won't be a problem, but will I be allowed to enter with an S-1 visa?

you have Study visa ,,, you should enter canadaa 2 or 3 week before ... tell your parent visit later when you will reach there and start you classes then come .... this would be better for all of you.. nowadays immigration officer think too much .. even you have a valid visa but imigration officer has full right to cancle your visa at any doubt !!! play save , chicky singles!!! its a test match not one day or 20 20!!!
No one here can tell you for certain what will happen.
There's certainly a chance that you will have no problems entering Canada early. However we've also seen one or two stories on this forum where people were denied entry into Canada because they arrived too far ahead of the start of their classes. In these cases the immigration officer suspected they were coming early to work illegally, sent them home and told them to return closer to the start of their studies.
For me , I think you should wait till July, which is roughly a month before ur class , with these u will definitely have no problem at the Point of Entry.
