I went to university here in Ontario. During one of the summer breaks, I worked an unpaid internship to gain more experience and make my resume look better. It did help to some extent. Only recently I learned that unpaid internships are illegal in Ontario except for a few extremely limited narrow circumstances, which my situation does not fall into.
Now, in the context of a PR application, should I declare this internship in my “personal history” section or not? I’m afraid that omitting it would be misrepresentation but declaring it would clearly show I participated in illegal employment. I am the dependent in my mother's PR application, so my employment history is not central to our eligibility.

If you declare this internship in your personal history section, is it obvious to IRCC that it is unpaid? I don't think so. I don't think they verify these things with CRA either.
Kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.
