In Canada your personal credit report is purged every 6 years. Being so; any written off accounts or collections and paid off accounts will fall off of your credit report. Equifax will confirm this with you. Call 1.877.227.8800 to contact Equifax direct. Might I advise that it is a good idea to check your personal credit every 8 months; this way you will know exactly what financial institutions see when they review your credit when you are applying for credit. Applying for creidt can sometimes by a trying event, educating yourself on your own credit score will give you more leverage to negociate the terms of a loan for example.
