I would not travel internationally just for fun.
To travel internationally with DACA, applying for Advance Parole is currently your only option. To be granted Advance Parole, you must apply at least 90 days in advance to USCIS, pay the $360 application fee, and abide by very strict rules. You must prove you are traveling for humanitarian, educational, or work purposes and your trip must be laid out to USCIS in extreme detail.
If you have DACA and try to travel outside the U.S. without getting Advance Parole first, your DACA status will be terminated immediately and you may be barred from returning to the U.S. Even if it is on accident, crossing the border outside of the U.S. or a U.S. territory could jeopardize your DACA status.
Remember that if immigration reform passes and you are out of the country, you could very well be disqualified from a path to citizenship. Talk to an attorney before leaving the country once you have DACA, because you don’t want to lose this wonderful opportunity.
Advanced parole is issued by USCIS. When you try to return you have to go through CBP which will most likely not accept your advanced parole under DACA and refuse you entry. Under those circumstances I doubt Canada will grant you a visa if they know about your situation (they most likely will find out).
Sorry!
In order to leave the US, you must have a valid PASSPORT. So obtain one from the country of your birth as your DACA does NOT make you a US Citizen.
You can always leave the US without a passport but you cannot be allowed back in without one proving you are a US Citizen.
Because you are not a US Citizen, you will need a current VISA to prove you are in the US LEGALLY.
