Default Question about PR Visa and travelling around....

I have a question in regards to someone who holds a Canadian PR visa, and
travels to other country.

From what I was told by a friend of mine, even as a Canadian PR, the person
who travels around still is charged (in terms of visa fees) according to the
citizenship they hold? Is this true?

For example, for a Japanese national to travel in the US, they must purchase
a US entry visa of $50 which is good for 6 months of travel in the US. Does
this still hold true if that Japanese national holds a Canadian PR visa?
Would they still have to pay the $50 to enter into the US?

Thanks

The same reciprocity rules apply. Isn't Japan on the Visa-Waiver list for the US?

No, they are not. THey do have to pay immigration to obtain a visa to enter
the country, unless thats recently changed?

The rule of thumb is that its one's nationality (passport) that determines visa requirements and not the residency.
