Depends what countries. Visiting a country like Germany once for vacation obviously is going to raise less flags than showing extensive travel history to Afghanistan for no good reason.

NOC 2173. The application is for both me and my wife. I haven't travelled any where other than US & India, but my wife has visited Japan other than US & India and lay overs in between for both of us.
I see. The least "mainstream" I have on my travel log is Russia. Let's see how it goes.
Thanks!
European Union u r good.. because Canada shares a close bond .. As it is still under Queen...I am more concerned about middle eastern countries and extend of stay, but again Dubai is way to advanced and have all info..
yeah don worry... hope you didn't do anything fishy hehehehehehhehehe
None of these countries would raise immediate flags. For Tunisia, I would specify what region you visited, as I believe some areas in the South and bordering Libya may not be considered as safe.
Actually, make it a habit to specify for any country you visited what region you stayed in. I assume it's meant exactly to help assess if a certain visit you made warrants further investigation. I visited the Philippines myself last year in a totally safe area, but there's a portion of the country that's considered to be an absolute no-go for tourists and if I was a VO I would certainly get suspicious if I see that an applicant visited that region for an extended period of time.
How does one ensure that? Did you send some special request to WES? I just attached my WES report to my education and that's it.... Should I have done more than that?
Ok, as there where no updates on cic profile I decided to call them and check application status, wait was around 20 minutes which wasn't bad at all, lady was pleasant and cheerful, she checked application status while putting me on the hold, as I was calling on behalf of my hubby she said, application is taking it's course and going smoothly and we have to wait for decision, she said that there is no red flags or any concerns. She said rest assure everything is fine, whatever that means. 
I tried to inquire in which stage we are in she said that because I'm dependent she can't disclose information, so therefore he would have to contact them, to see in more depth.She said we just have to wait for decision, I told her that decision can take up to 6 months, but i told her that perhaps inland applications are processed faster, which she said generally they are but she cant confirm itanyway I guess its good news its going smoothly
