Dear friends,
I am a landed immigrant. In case I am working for a Canadian Company outside Canada, and my family is still living (HERE) in Canada, do the days I spend outside Canada (WORKING FOR A CANADIAN COMPANY) count for my days for citizenship?

Please, advise!

No, only work outside Canada for the Public Service, Military or Public Service of a province counts towards CITIZENSHIP, if the company meets the definition of Canadian, i.e. majority of owners/shareholders are Canadian or PR then the time counts towards retention of PR status.
