My wife and I are traveling to Vancouver in September. I am a US citizen she is a Cameroonian citizen with a premenant resident card from the US. Her Cameroon passport just expired and will take more than three months to issue a new one so she kept it and filing for citizenship in the US. Will Canada let her back in with an expired passport?

this is what I got from the US embassy website with Canada.

Alien Permanent Residents

Alien permanent residents of the U.S. must present their Alien Registration Card, commonly called the “Green Card.”

So yes, you only need your green card to enter and leave Canada, but if you are entering from a third country, then you’ll also need your passport.
