Just finish listening to CBC's interview with Marco E. L. Mendicino, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, about a pathway to permanent residency for refugee claimants who work/working in health care. He said they have introduced a temporary measure that will provide a pathway to permanent residency for asylum claimants working in the health-care sector during the COVID-19 pandemic. Here is also the link from IRCC's website.

Without any mention to your racist expression(people like you)
I will explain to you why he is searching for his home country passport.. The simple answer is that he read alot that after giving people PR, they return their passport... That's why he is waiting, not because he want to use it, as much as he knows that they will give it to him or her as a procedure following the PR status
 
i agree, they can keep it i don't have any use for it, i can use my RTD and in two years i'll apply or Citizenship and get my Canadian passport
A quick question for you: When they start counting 5 years required to apply for citizenship? Is the time you received your PR or the time you received the refugee status?

3 years required and days from hearing date to landing date , counts half, after landing date every day will be counted.

So, let's say hearing to landing date is 22 months (11 months being counted). After landing date, you have only 25 months (36 -11) to apply for citizenship, which would be like 2 years and 1 month! Correct me if I am wrong!

Correct time as a visitor or PP counts as 365 max so basically 1 year.

You can also use the tool call citizenship calculator and it will give you the exact date because it will deduct dates from travel ETC ETC
