I'm from Congo(Democratic Republic of Congo)
In that case you have two options.

The first option is to be officially recognized as a refugee by UNHCR in South Africa and then selected for resettlement to Canada by UNHCR. You cannot chose where you will be resettled - UNHCR will pick a country for you.

The second option is to apply for a TRV (tourist visa), come to Canada as visitors and then claim asylum once you are here.

For the second option am i qualify to apply TRV visa bcz I don't have permit in South Africa(asylum seeker) my empty passport can allow me to get a visa.

Based on your status in SA, the chances of getting an approved TRV are probably close to zero. To be approved for a TRV, you must show that you have very strong ties to your home country and have no plans to remain in Canada long term.

Finding a job as a foreigner is next to impossible. However you can see if you qualify to immigrate through an economic immigration stream. I would recommend you start by researching the Express Entry program.
