Okay, got another Q for entering address history!

From 2010-2014 I was enrolled at university in Vancouver. Each summer I would go home for a few days in New York, then drive up to my summer camp in Ontario for 2-3 months, drive back home to New York for another few days and then fly back to Vancouver for University.

Q1: Do I list all this exactly as it happened and include even 2-3 day periods at home in between school and camp? Ex:
Vancouver address (school) From: 2010-09-05, To: 2011-04-25,
New York address (home) From: 2011-04-26 To: 2011-04-28
Camp address (work) From: 2011-04-29 To 2011-08-20
New York Address (home) From 2011-08-21 To 2011-09-07
Vancouver address (school) From 2011-09-08 To
... And so on for EACH YEAR (aka lots of detail and around 26 entries)

I've got it laid out this way so as to be most truthful about my location in each state/province so that the officers can figure out which Police checks are required. My only hesitation is that its a lot of detail to include entries at home even just for a few days. And if it is too detailed then how would I go about simplifying it?

ya'll are angels ::) Thanks

I would list the entire duration at university as one entry and put the school address. You can cover these trips in your travel history where you would anyways mention going home or to camp as per the dates. In any case, CIC does not require you to list trips between country of residence and country of citizenship, so you should be good.
