Yes, holders of a valid Canadian student visa can generally visit the USA for short trips, such as tourism or business purposes. However, they need to apply for a separate visa called a B-2 Tourist Visa or use the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) if eligible. It's important to note that the terms and conditions of entry to the USA may differ from those of Canada, so travellers should review the specific requirements and documentation needed for their trip. Additionally, any travel plans should be in compliance with the terms of the Canadian student visa, including maintaining full-time enrolment and abiding by the rules of the study program.
