Here is my story
I applied for study permit October 21, 2019, did my Biometrics October 23, 2019
got a refusal on November 8, 2019
applied for GCMS note and here is the details:
''I have reviewed the application given family ties or economic motives to remains in Canada, the applicant’s incentives to remain in Canada may outweigh their ties to their home country. The applicant’s plan of studies appears vague and poorly documented. According to the applicant current or future employment prospect, I have accorded less weight to their employment ties to their country of residence weighing the factor in this application I am not satisfied that the applicant will depart Canada at the end of the period authorized for their stay. For the reason above, I have refused this application.''

i'm planning to reapply, please do i need to submit another Statement of purpose or i should submit only Letter of Explanation

No. What you need to submit is a well detailed and brief LOE. Also you must arrange your documents well.
