I have a close work permit that is valid till mid 2015 and I have already applied for the PR under CEC though waiting for AOR.
My spouse who accompanies me came here on TRV but now has an open work permit.
I already know this that if I lose my job, my permit will get cancelled and I'll have to get my status changed to temporary resident hence I wont be able to legally work but my wife's permit stays valid.
What I would like to know is, provided the above situation (i.e me loosing job) would I be then able to apply for an open work permit provided my spouse has a valid open work permit? Do remember though that she's got her permit based my current closed work permit.

1. If you lose your job, you work permit is still valid, allowing you to remain, you just can't work for a new employer without a new LMO and new work permit.
2. No.
