U need a Temporary Resident Visa to enter Canada.   Click on the link below and all the info u need is there. Choose the consulate nearest to u so u save urself time and money.

how long it was valid for.
The minimum u can get is 6 months multiple.

@ Young Digi:

Yes, you can go to Canada (or Mexico) to renew your US visa. As long as you have a valid I-94, you will be allowed to re-enter the US on an expired visa. It's called the "Automatic Revalidation Rule." You can stay outside the US for up to 30 days under this law.

The problem though is, if you are denied a new visa at the US embassy in Canada or Mexico, you will not be able to re-enter the US.

Visit the US Department of State website on this link to get the details:

I wasn't familiar with such system hence it all seemed Greek to me. Now, it's understood.
