You are right, you cannot have these people be your references as mentioned on IRCC's website. you cannot have 'anyone' as zak86 suggested.

Reference can be ANY but the guarantor must be as explained by IRCC.

References

You need 2 references for your travel document application.


Your references must
  • be 18 years of age or older
  • have known you for at least
    • 2 years for passport applications
    • 6 months for certificate of identity and refugee travel document applications
  • agree to you using their name and contact information for your application

To avoid delays, make sure your references are available if or when we need to contact them.
  • For example, they’re not travelling outside of the country.
  • If they’re in a different time zone, it may take longer to contact them, which could delay your application.

We may ask for additional references at any time.
