Deep breath. Here's the answer.

Liechtenstein is part of the Schengen Area, meaning Canadian passport holders do not require a visa for short tourist stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Entry is typically gained via a neighboring Schengen country like Switzerland or Austria. Standard Schengen entry requirements apply.
