AFAIK, the date of PR sticker is date of issue of not "5 years anniversary of exercising treaty rights".
You should be able to apply now after 6 years (5 years exercising treat rights + 1 year).

You are eligible for BC since April 2011. All you need to do is to prove last 6 years that you were physcly here and self sufficent.
