Does a work permit stay a removal?

Hello everyone,

I was found inadmissible in Canada and issued a removal order, I was given the option to apply for a PRRA which I did in order to stay the removal.
While awaiting the decision for the PRRA I applied for a work permit. The work permit expired in May 2022, so I pre-emptively applied to renew it in March 2022.
CBSA officer gets in touch with me saying that the decision for the PRRA was negative and so removal is imminent. Removal date is set for 30th of September 2022.
On the 12th of September 2022 I get confirmation that the work permit extension that I applied for in March has been approved.
My questions are: does getting a valid work permit stay a removal?
If yes, under what regulation clause is this supported?

Thank you.
