No, pardons granted for Canadian offences only count as pardons in Canada. For example, if a person with a criminal conviction wants to travel to the USA, they need a US entry waiver, even if they have a Canadian pardon. For more information: canadianpardons.ca/us-entry-waivers/

Are criminal pardons in Canada the same as in the US?

Canada doesn't have a president, but it has a Queen whose functions are normally exercised by a Governor General. Whereas the US President can grant a pardon for any federal offense, arbitrarily, the Governor General exercises clemency on the advice of a government minister and only in exceptional circumstances. Most criminal pardons in Canada are granted by the Parole Board of Canada. They serve only to make a criminal record inaccessible after a person has finished their sentence.

Can you divorce in Canada when you are not a resident of Canada?

In general, yes. Note, this question may stem from a legal gap, where previously marriages performed in Canada to non-residents whose marriages might not be recognized in their state of residence were not definitely recognized in Canada (eg, marriage of a woman in the US to a woman in Britain). That has since been rectified: all marriages performed in Canada are now legally recognized in Canada.
