The passport is always stamped indicating the date of entry, first time when a visa is used (i.e. by citizens of countries requiring a visa to enter Canada). They may not necessarily stamp the "allowed to remain" (validity of stay) date. In this case, the default is 6 months, as explained on the CIC website. In any case, it is always recommended to telephone the relevant agency (e.g. CIC in this case) and clarify any doubts. Make a note of the time/day you called and the person you spoke to for your reference.

Well, not in the case when my parents and MIL visited on separate time periods. Their passports were checked for visa, but not stamped at entry.
