Hi regarding to your three questions:
1. since deadline is May 1, I believe, so the sooner the better, also show them you are really interested in pursuing your mba with Ivey. remember positive attitude is always important.
2. time difference is exactly 12 hrs now, since we are in summer time now. So now in Toronto it is Apr13, Wed, 9:30 in the morning, while in Beijing, would be Apr 13, Wed, 9:30 in the evening. Do remember check the date! if it is Toronto's afternoon today, then it would be tomorrow's morning in Beijing.
3. Interview questions --- why Ivey, why mba? Example of team work, leadership? Example of project, what you learned from that? Overall, very generic questions and many of them would be somewhat the same as your essay questions. Suggestions: prepare 5-6 questions, including the above mentioned, and also regarding to your resume, write them down or outline, it would help you to keep your conversation in focus. Because, telephone interview would be more difficult than face to face.
Good luck, hope these would help a little bit.
