Let's say I have US and Canada tourist visas. I can stay in Canada for 6 months and must then leave the country. Could I just go to the US for a few days and come back to Canada, as this would be a new entry and I could stay In Canada for 6 more months?

You could in principle (since you are a visa), but the immigration officer would very likely not be happy about this (and deny you entry). – xuq01 Feb 7 at 8:10

1How would you convince Canadian Border officials that you are a genuine visitor? You would effectively be living in Canada – Traveller Feb 7 at 9:06

1If you traveled a lot and you can proof this (+ you have many funds and you are not working in Canada), you may get a chance. But there is a risk that you are seen as media person (aka travel reporter, photographer, and so not a real tourist) – Giacomo Catenazzi Feb 7 at 13:13

If you have no reason to go to the US other than extending your status, there is also a process to apply to extend your status from within Canada.
