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