The Ecuadorian Ministry of Foreign Affairs directed you to the visa application system and provided the requirements for a temporary tourist visa. They specifically instructed applicants outside Ecuador to select an Ecuadorian consulate in the online system. The Ministry also states that visa processing can take up to 60 days.

The written response does not explicitly state that the Canadian RTD is visa-exempt or that a Canadian RTD holder can enter without a visa. Instead, it directs the applicant to the visa process and provides tourist-visa requirements, including a travel itinerary and return tickets.

Canadian RTD holders should apply for an Ecuadorian temporary visitor/tourist visa through the official e-Visa system before travelling. Applicants should allow sufficient processing time and prepare their itinerary, return tickets, proof of legal status, and other required documents. The Ecuadorian authorities should be contacted if confirmation is needed regarding acceptance of the specific Canadian RTD.
