I am asking this question again as I have not seen any that pertain to Canadian passports. I am a Canadian citizen with a Canadian passport.

I have a flight to a non-Schengen country. However I have two layovers in Schengen countries (Zurich, Vienna). Would I need a visa?

So my flight is Montreal > Zurich (50 minute layover) > Vienna (1 hour layover) > Destination.

Or am I exempt from the visa? I heard from some that I am not exempt, and from some that there is a limit to my time of stay (24/48 hours) I don't know who to believe and I want to book my flight with confidence so I don't lose the offer until tomorrow by calling an embassy.

Thank you!

Canadian citizens do not require a visa to visit the Schengen area for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. You do not need a Schengen visa for your itinerary.

I heard from some that I am not exempt, and from some that there is a limit to my time of stay (24/48 hours)

Neither of those assertions is correct.
