multiple entry visa question

anyone know how to tell the difference how to tell if the visa is a multiple entry visa or a super visa?

on the sticker they put in the passport it says Category MULtiple V-1, which I assume its the multiple entry visa that can stay up to 6 month at a time?

what happens if I want to stay more than 6 month do I have to extend the stay online same procedure as a single entry visa?

Is there a actual limit in how many times I can get in Canada? it expires in 2023, that means I can come and go as I wish as long as the stay is under 6 month?

I got this for my father in law who got his own business in asia but want to come and visit the kids often, probably 3-4 trips a year for no more than 10 days... is there ever a chance he might get rejected by CBSA?

1. The TRV is a visa that allows you to come to Canada and apply for admission. Once you are admitted for a specific time, and wish to stay longer, you apply for an extension as a visitor to Vegreville, where you request a visitor permit. 2 different things.
2. There is no guaranteed that a person would be admitted every time. If the CBSA officer at the Airport/Border decides that the persons is living in Canada permanently rather than just visiting, then can refuse admission. In your F/law case that wouldn't apply since he is only spending a short time in Canada on each visit.
