If someone stay (one month) or even one day out of 5 years will it be counted? Can you clarify what is (each 5 years)

Hi

Yes, but you have to have 730 days (2 years) in each 5 year period.  So if you landed 01/01/04 stayed 1 day you have to return by 01/01/07 and remain in Canada for the following 729 days, without leaving.  If you landed 01/01/04 remained in Canada for 1 year, and then left, you would have to return by 01/01/08 and remain for 1 full year, it is a rolling count based on landing, and last entry/exit to Canada.
