Absolutely it will affect your process. You may be criminally inadmissible.

See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/inadmissibility/conviction.asp

Assault is explicitly listed as one of the grounds upon which you may be inadmissible. This is a complex area, because if it was a long time ago, you may be able to obtain rehabilitation. If it was recent, your application will be rejected barring some unusual circumstance that would make you eligible for a Temporary Resident Permit.

My suggestion would be to find a good immigration attorney that has considerable experience in criminal inadmissibility.

EXCEPT THAT ON 2006 HE WAS 2006 UPON CONVICTION FOR THE OFFENCE ASSAULT.

Again, I will note that you are now outside the normal type application and thus would benefit from an experienced Canadian immigration attorney.

If it has been five years since you completed any sentence associated with this conviction, you may be eligible for rehabilitation. One reason it is difficult to say is that one must examine the foreign statute and determine what the corresponding Canadian criminal statute would be and what the maximum penalty would be under the Canadian statute. You may research this directly of course.

The forms for criminal rehabilitation are here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/rehabil.asp. This application requires specific additional paperwork, such as court records, copies of the legal statute, etc.

Have you already submitted an application to CIC? If not, you can include the rehabilitation application with a PR application. If so, you would have revealed this conviction on your application, so they won't be surprised when you send in a rehabilitation application.

Note there is a fee of either $200 or $1000 for rehabilitation, depending upon the severity of the offence. The VO will evaluate your application and determine if you are rehabilitated. In a situation in which you have a single incident for which you completed your sentence (including parole or probation) more than five years ago and you have a clear explanation of the circumstances and you convince them that you are unlikely to offend again, then you have a good chance of success.
