No, not for citizenship it is days in Canada unless "
Section 5(1.1) applies only where the Canadian citizen spouse is working
with the
public service of Canada or a province or for the Canadian armed forces."
Also remember you have to reside in Canada for 2 years in every 5 year
period to maintain your PR status, unless you are accompanying your spouse
who is a Canadian.
