You can explain to them it's lost and show proof (receipt) that you've applied for it. Some agents don't even ask for that.
In my opinion, this document is not as crucial as your current and expired passports, if you have a long travel history and you don't have a lot of buffer days.
I applied for Verification of Status for the same reason and it took only 1 month to get. I was quite surprised. I would give it a try and if you don't get it in time then you can explain the situation and show the receipt that you applied for it.

depends how many days you were out of Canada. If this 10 days complete the 180 days, then you will need a PCC.

That wasn't his question. He was asking if he needs a new police clearance certificate if he goes back home after he applied for the citizenship application and the answer is no.
