No,you need to be physically present in canada to claim the experience ,any work done outside Canada even for the canadian companies will not count as a canadian experience. It will count as a foreign experience.
Hey there. Currently tackling all the PR requirements. I'm living in BC at the moment, about to take a full-time job at a company who are based in Toronto. I will be based in BC, but will also need to travel abroad for work. Does this count as 1 year work experience for PR? Thankyou
1- Short business trips should not be a problem; there are many entries in Canadavisa forum about this; you can search on Google.
2- Keep in consideration that you will not be able to benefit from any provincial nominee in the future if you live and work in different provinces.
