Does anyone know if a private pilot flying under the sport pilot rules (no
medical), flying an experimental plane meeting the LSA rules can fly to
and within Canada?

The simple answer: No
----------------------------
§61.315 What are the privileges and limits of my sport pilot certificate?

A private pilot flying with no medical doesn't have a SP certificate. He has
a PP certificate. Someone trained through SP would have a SP certificate.

FAR 61.303 says that if you do not have a medical but hold at least a
Recreational Pilot license, you must comply with the limitations in
61.315...which includes the ban on flying outside the US.
