You can use your IELTS General as language proof.

The website says: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/CIT0002ETOC.asp

Results of an accepted third-party test at the equivalent of Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB/NCLC) / Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiensFootnote 1 level 4 or higher in speaking and listening either done previously for immigration purposes (acceptable even if expired) or done specifically for citizenship purposes. Test results from the following list are acceptable:

4.0 or higher in speaking, and
4.5 or higher in listening. (Please note: If the test was done before November 28, 2008, we will accept a level 4 or higher);

Please check the website link that I have pasted above. I have copied just the IELTS part from the website. You can read the instructions thoroughly on the link that I have mentioned above.
