The number of hours is not specified by Immigration Canada.

Also, Immigration Quebec requires CAQ holders to remain enrolled full-time for the duration of their studies.
You may work an unlimited number of work hours during an academic term and scheduled breaks.
Students registered in full-time studies** McGill degree, certificate, diploma students, visiting/exchange students, and who have a valid Study Permit.
To work during scheduled breaks, students must be registered full-time before and after scheduled breaks.
* If you are a McGill degree-seeking student, and your Study Permit was issued June 1, 2014, or later, it will likely include conditions and/or remarks that clearly state that you are eligible to work on or off-campus if you meet the eligibility requirements. This will be necessary in order to be able to apply for a Social Insurance Number.
If you are a McGill degree-seeking student, and your Study Permit does not include a reference to your eligibility to work on or off-campus, you can submit a request for an amendment to your study permit in order to be able to apply for a Social Insurance Number. The Request to Amend can only be submitted by mail - there is no fee for this request -and you can check the current processing time required.
