If I did CELPIP in 2015 for Express Entry, I don’t need to do CELPIP-LS for Citizenship do I?
The interweb seems to have a variety of answers...
Paragon (CELPIP) themselves indicate that IRCC only accepts CELPIP-LS, but CIC suggests CELPIP-G is acceptable.

Your expired CELPIP G is sufficient. LS means listening and speaking.

"Did you immigrate to Canada through a federal immigration program requiring a third-party test result for language ability (e.g. Federal Skilled Workers, Canadian Experience Class)?
If you did, were your tests and results:
Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program General Test (CELPIP-G)
tests taken after April 1, 2014, must have scores of 4 or higher (up to 12) in listening and speaking
tests taken before April 1, 2014, must have scores of 2H or higher (3L, 3H, 4L, 4H, 5L, or 5H) in listening and speaking
[ . . .]
If so, send a copy of your test results with your citizenship application, even if the results have expired."
but do the whole wizard:
