The Canadian Ministry of Immigration's official website states:
A translation must maintain consistency over time and remain valid indefinitely unless the original document has been modified or has expired. The expiration of a certified translator's or notary's signature does not make the translation invalid. If the translator's certification was valid at the time of signing, the translation remains valid.
A new translation will be required only if the original document has expired or undergone changes and the applicant submits a new document.
