Applying for P.R. while working for an illegal cannabis company

[GNSmith]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any experience applying for PR (be it through CEC, FSW or whatever) while they worked for an illegal cannabis company?

Thanks!

The illegal work experience cannot be used towards CEC or FSW or any other immigration program.

Be aware that you will inevitably have to account for the period(s) you were working for an illicit business. I imagine you can't make up things since you were obviously in Canada and any claim you come forward with is easily verifiable. I'd stay away from PR if I were you.
