what about when u get told to go-around due some mug on the runway....and they say "ABC when ready turn crosswind follow the twin turning base now."

CAR 166 says "after take-off, not alter heading from the take-off heading at a height less than 500 feet above the terrain, if the alteration was not:
(i) directed by air traffic control; or
(ii) necessary due to the terrain."

do ATC have more detail as to when they can direct this early deviation???

also i take it when told "when ready" that i can turn when im ready at any altitude so that i can fit back into the traffic pattern, of course this is at a GAAP, YSBK to be precise.
