</div>Canadians don't need a visa for most short visits. But by "Canadians"<br>
I mean people with a Canadian passport. If you have a Brazilian<br>
passport, it doesn't matter how you enter the US (by air, land or sea,<br>
directly from Brazil or via Canada), you will need a US visa. A<br>
Canadian visa won't help you get into the US at all: the US and Canada<br>
are separate countries with border controls between them (the border<br>
isn't open like the one between the UK and Ireland, or the borders<br>
between Schengen countries in Europe).<br>
<br>
That said, I hear it's possible to get a visa from a US consulate in<br>
Canada, which I presume will have shorter waiting times than some<br>
consulates elsewhere. But this is probably not allowed in most<br>
circumstances if you're not a Canadian citizen. In the OP's case where<br>
his country of citizenship doesn't have a consulate or embassy and<br>
he's gonna have to apply in a third country anyway, it might just be<br>
allowed, I guess. But Canada is a lot farther from Iran than Turkey or<br>
the UAE and doesn't have visa-free travel for Iranians either, so<br>
you'd have to get a visa in order to get a visa :P . I wouldn't know<br>
what sort of choice you have in choosing the country where you apply<br>
for a visa and whether you're allowed to apply in a country farther<br>
away from Iran where waiting times are shorter. You should probably<br>
talk to an immigration lawyer about that sort of thing.<br>
