Yes !

Switzerland allows Canadian PR entry without visa, but not sure about France as it is a part of schengen.

Switzerland does NOT allow canadian PR's without Visa . call the swiss consulate and confirm it.

Check this page out. Check under requirements for India. But call the consulate anyway, just to be on the safe side.

One more site-look's like if you can show proof of long term residence in Canada you can visit without a visa for upto 90 days.

Thanks a lot for the links and info.

You are right, CanI, i called the Swiss consulate and canadian PR's don't need a visa to Switzerland! The Record Of Landing paper and a valid is passport is all what's required.
