Study permit after PGWP

[AizaLaga]

I am currently an international student with 1 year program and will apply for PGWP after my graduation. Can I still apply for student visa after PGWP to ensure PR approval? Or is it confirm that the minumum stay here in Canada for PR application is 2 years?

You are confusing rules and need to research PR requirements in more detail. There is no 2 year requirement to apply for PR. You're confusing applying for PR with applying for a new PR card (this is only something people who are already PRs can do). You need to dedicate time to researching Canada's immigration programs here to understand what the requirements are: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp

Thanks for the clarification. So how many years of stay in Canada should you be eligible to apply for PR?

There's no such requirement. The fact you are living in Canada doesn't mean you qualify for PR.

Again, you need to dedicate time reading through the details of Canada's immigration programs (provided in the link above) to understand what it takes to apply.

Note that PGWP is only a one time deal so if you are planning to apply for PR, you should at least study one more year so you can get a 2 or maybe 3 year PGWP depending. PR is obtain by having enough job experiences and education. There is no such thing as staying in Canada for a number of years will give you direct qualification for PR.
