Depends on the industry you are in actually. I believe most Oil and Gas companies you start at 3 weeks. Which I believe is what it is at CP, I was going to check but their website is down.

You are correct, you don't get 7 weeks until either 20 or 21 years. So no it would not be accurate since it says new employees get 7 weeks vacation.
