About a year ago I had a trip from Canada abroad. Lets say it was planned on evening 1 of June. However after we registered for the flight, passed security checks the flight was cancelled due to some technical issues with the plane. New flight was arranged only for next day- 2 of June. All passengers had to fill declarations, pass the border and go home. Personally I went through the border some 10 minutes before or 10 minutes after the midnight. The officer didn't stamp my passport anyway.

What should I write in the days out of Canada section? Left Canada 1 June 2016 returned 2 June 2016 and than left Canada again 2 June 2016 returned 10 June? Or just skip it and write left Canada 2 June 2016- 10 June 2016?
One extra day of absence won't make any difference to my application anyway.
