Hi all,
I am pr holder. I amoved recently abroad along with my son who born in canada. My question is living abroad with my minor Canadian son counted toward my pr period?

No - it won't.

Your time outside of Canada would only count if your spouse / common law partner was a Canadian citizen. The same rule doesn't apply when the Canadian citizen is your child.
