I got an employer specific work permit in January for a 5 month contract (January-June) and applied for a workers visitor visa (W-1) which I received in February with the same expiration date of my work permit, but then I changed jobs and received a new employer specific work permit with another company in April and got 1 year contract, can I still use the W-1 visa to go out and re-enter Canada with my new work permit for the remaining 3 months it has or do I need to apply for a new W-1 visa for my new work permit in order to reenter the country if I travel?

Thank you in advance for your time and answers.

You can use the W-1 visa you have as long as it is unexpired and unused (if single entry) or allows multiple entry (if used). It is your entry document into the country and allows you to travel into the country. It is not tied to a specific WP.

Upon re-entering Canada, you will be asked to present your WP as the W-1 category identifies you as a worker entering Canada.
