If you've been arrested you have a criminal record.

A record doesn't just mean convicted of a crime it means all information pertaining to you in the criminal justice system.

So if you were taken into custody, even without charges, you have to put in an application to Parole Board of Canada to have that information removed.

What to do? Well that's on you. If you say you don't have a criminal record, and you get flagged, you could be arrested again. If you say you do, you could be denied entry. But they also might just let you enter anyway because you've not been convicted of anything.

best to give them a call for some solid facts.

A bench warrant doesn't count as a criminal record.

I heard it's pointless because they don't share that info with the USA.

>you could be arrested again.
What would I be arrested for?

In addition, multiple convictions involving crimes which are NOT classified as crimes involving moral turpitude ordinarily do not block your entry.
