She likely would. My mother inquired because she worked in England,
before coming to Canada as a warbride for, for about five years.
However, the authorities in England told her she did not qualify because
two of the four years were an apprenticeship and not full employment.
My advise is to apply because many women who worked in England before
coming to Canada did qualify.
