I have an unusual circumstance.

I got a removal order after abandoning my refugee claim the processing time for that application was around 4 years., and left Canada.

However a couple of years after leaving Canada, I got married to a Canadian woman who sponsored me and I am now back in Canada.

My question is , do the previous years I spent before in Canada count towards my residency requirement?

thank you for any light you can shed on this matter.

No - these days don't count (either towards citizenship or PR residency requirement).
