depends on your visa office. Stage 1 is around 50 days, but quite a few people get done faster.
Stage 2 depends on your VO - you can check here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm-fc.asp

that's the time needed to complete 80% of applications, so you can be done faster, if you have a complete, straightforward case. If not, it might take longer.
Good luck,
Sweden

I am assuming your application is an outland application (i.e. not processed in Ottawa).

The processing time depends on the Visa Office where your file is being processed. It takes somewhere between 8 months to 2 years (or more).

For processing times according to Visa Offices, check the Canadian Government Immigration Website at:
